The Palestinian Health Ministry in Ramallah says a 22-year-old man was killed as troops carry out a raid in the West Bank Palestinian city of Dura, near Hebron.
The man is named as Hassan Ibrahim Abu Sebaa.
Another 10 people are reported injured in the rare daytime raid, which may be connected to today’s car-ramming and stabbing attack in Ra’anana. Both suspects in the deadly terror rampage were from the Hebron area, according to Israeli authorities.
A number of unverified videos shared on social media show troops operating in the town and arresting people. One video appears to show troops kicking a person crumpled in a street, while another shows a man being marched by soldiers at rifle point.

The IDF says troops were carrying out “proactive activity” in the area when some 100 Palestinians began to riot.
It says troops responded with riot dispersal means and live fire after they were attacked with cinderblocks and Molotov cocktails.
