A Palestinian man was reportedly killed and two others injured in clashes with Israeli security troops during a raid in the West Bank city of Tubas this morning.
The official Palestinian news agency Wafa says the man, Muhammad Issam Shahmawi, was shot in the head.
Ynet news reports that the man was a terror operative from the nearby al-Faraa refugee camp.
Drones and snipers were also used in the raid, according to the report.
Since October 7, troops have arrested some 3,700 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,600 affiliated with Hamas.
According to the Palestinian Authority health ministry, more than 450 West Bank Palestinians have been killed in that time.
