Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent.

The Palestinian Authority Health Ministry says the death toll of the Israeli raid in the West Bank city of Jenin rises to four.

Palestinian media outlets identify the slain men as Yusuf Shreim, 29, a member of the military wing of the Hamas terror group, and Nidal Khazem, 28, a member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

The third Palestinian was named by the PA health ministry as 16-year-old Omar Awadin. The extent of his involvement in the clashes was not immediately clear.

The fourth Palestinian has not yet been identified, the ministry says.

At least 20 others are hurt, four seriously, according to the ministry.
