Late at night, Palestinian gunmen infiltrated a Jewish settlement near the West Bank city of Hebron and opened fire, killing at least three people and wounding eight. Israeli military sources said that security forces shot dead two of the attackers and were searching for others in the Kiryat Arba settlement.

The two gunmen were killed after holing up inside a building in the settlement’s religious seminary, Army Radio said. Soldiers rushed to the scene and ambulances sped away with the wounded.

Earlier, Israeli troops killed three Palestinians. Israeli security services also announced the arrest of a top bomb-maker of Hamas.
