The Palestinian Authority health ministry names the two terrorists who carried out the car bombing attacks in the West Bank last night and were killed by Israeli forces.
They are named as Muhammad Marqa and Zahdi Afifa, from Hebron.
The ministry says it was notified of their deaths by the PA’s General Authority of Civil Affairs, indicating that their bodies are being held by Israel.
