On Tuesday, Israeli security forces killed a Palestinian freedom fighter and another fighter in a gunbattle in the occupied West Bank. Israeli forces surrounded the house of Ibrahim al-Nabulsi, a senior commander of the Fatah’s Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades group, long on Israel’s wanted list. The shoot-out, in the northern West Bank city of Nablus, was the deadliest incident in the West Bank since Israel and the Islamic Jihad ended fighting in Gaza.
