The IDF says 10 Palestinians killed in a drone strike in the West Bank town of Tamun last night were all terror operatives, including two behind a deadly bombing attack.

According to the military, Omar Basharat and Muntaser Ali Muhammad Bani Odeh detonated a bomb in Tamun on January 20, which killed Sgt. First Class (res.) Eviatar Ben Yehuda and injured several others.

The pair were also behind additional shooting and bombing attacks in the West Bank, the army says. It does not detail allegations against the other eight.

Hamas says five of those killed in the drone strike were members of the terror group.
