Three Palestinians who participated in a shooting attack in the southern West Bank have been killed by security forces, the military says.
The Israel Defense Forces says in a statement that one of the Palestinians opened fire at troops conducting a patrol in the settlement of Adora.
One Israeli, aged 34, was hurt in the attack.
The Magen David Adom ambulance service says he is in good-to-moderate condition, after being shot in the leg.
The IDF says troops chased after the suspects, and “during searches, three terrorists were identified and eliminated by security forces.”
It says troops continue to scan the settlement.
