Hebrew-language media reports, without citing sources, say four Palestinians have been killed during the IDF raid in Jenin, including the alleged terrorist who carried out a deadly shooting attack in the West Bank town of Huwara last week.

The IDF had said troops are operating in the area, but does not immediately confirm the reports.

The Palestinian Authority Health Ministry says one person has been killed during the raid. The ministry identifies the man as 26-year-old Muhammed Wael Ghazzawi.

It also says several people are wounded.

Last week, two Israeli brothers Hallel Yaniv, 21 and Yagel Yaniv, 19, were shot dead when a Palestinian gunman opened fire from close range at an Israeli-owned car on the Route 60 highway, then fled the scene, apparently on foot.
