Palestinians protest after Israeli forces eliminate two gunmen at West Bank checkpoint – The Economic Times Video

Israeli forces shot dead two Palestinian men at a military post near the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank’s Salem. The incident occurred when several militants arrived in a vehicle and fired at soldiers stationed at the Salem military post. ‘The soldiers, who were pre-positioned due to several similar past incidents, eliminated two terrorists,’ the Israeli Army said. Palestinian authorities in Ramallah identified the two men killed as Mustafa Sultan Abed, 21, and Ahmed Muhammad Shawahna, 20. Later on Saturday, residents of Sultan Abed’s village of Kfardan held a march paying tribute to him. Palestinians, including several armed militants, took part in a march in protest against the Israeli Army.
