The IDF spokesperson announced Tuesday morning that IDF commandos eliminated two terrorists from Tulkarm overnight Monday as they were about to commit a shooting attack. The two armed terrorists approached the seamline fence between the Palestinian Authority and Israel in order to carry out a shooting attack on Israeli yishuvim. The IDF forces ambushed the terrorists and opened fire. A gun battle ensued which ended with the deaths of the terrorists. The ambush comes after a series of shooting attacks at Israeli yishuvim by terrorists from the Tulkarm area. Last week, Hamas terrorists from Tulkarm opened fire at Bat Hefer, a Jewish yishuv east of Netanya, and posted a video of the shooting on social media. (YWN Israel Desk – Jerusalem)
