The IDF says it is investigating after soldiers were filmed shoving the bodies of Palestinian gunmen off a rooftop following an exchange of fire in the West Bank city of Qabatiya, near Jenin, earlier today.

“This is a serious incident that is not in line with IDF values ​​and what is expected of IDF soldiers,” the military says, adding that the incident is being investigated.

IDF troops killed four gunmen during clashes in Qabatiya earlier today, and carried out another drone strike against several more gunmen in a car in the evening hours, the military said.
