Palestinians shot at Tapuah Junction in ‘foiled attack’ were unarmed — report

Army Radio reports that the shooting of two Palestinians at Tapuah Junction earlier in the day, which the army called a “foiled attack,” was a mistake and the men were not armed.

Reports said the two men, Palestinian Authority intelligence services, arrived at the junction in a car and opened the window. Soldiers thought one of them had a gun and opened fire, killing one and seriously wounding the other.

However, Army Radio says there was no weapon.
