Three Palestinian young men were killed and another one was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday morning near the Surra checkpoint in western Nablus.
According to local sources the IOF opened fire at the young men as they were aboard a car killing three of them.
The Israeli occupation army claimed that a patrol of the Golani Brigade carried out what it described as a “preemptive operation” and opened fire at and neutralized three Palestinian gunmen after they targeted a military post near the Jit village junction in western Nablus.
The Israeli army added that its forces exchanged fire with the gunmen and arrested a fourth young man in the same area.
The Hebrew media published pictures of weapons and ammunition the IOF claimed they were used by the slain young men.
