Israeli military kills 3 alleged Palestinian gunmen in volatile West Bank
2023-07-26
[An Nahar] The Israeli military said it shot and killed three alleged Paleostinian button men in the northern occupied West Bank on Tuesday, the latest bloodshed in one of the most violent mostly peaceful stretches of the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict in years.

Israeli security forces said they shot up Paleostinian bandidos turbans who had shot at them from a car in the West Bank city of Nablus, the territory's commercial capital and a major focus of the Israeli military's recently stepped-up raids. In the hilly neighborhood of al-Tur shortly after the shooting, Israeli forces inspected a shattered black Skoda surrounded by spent bullet casings.

Paleostinian media described the Israeli killing of the button men as an ambush following the bad boys' attempted attack on Israeli forces near a Jewish settlement overlooking Nablus. The Israeli military said it confiscated three M-16 rifles and other equipment from their car.

Israeli-Paleostinian fighting has surged in the territory, which Israel captured from Jordan in the 1967 Mideast war. Paleostinians seek the occupied West Bank, along with east Jerusalem and the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

Strip, for a hoped-for future state.

In recent months, the West Bank has witnessed a volatile mix of the rise of local armed Paleostinian groups carrying out frequent shooting attacks against Israelis and near-daily Israeli military raids that have increasingly turned deadly. Earlier this month, Israel's most forceful incursion into the West Bank in nearly two decades killed 12 Paleostinians and one Israeli soldier.

Heightening tensions, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's far-right, ultranationalist coalition has rejected talks with the Paleostinian leadership, sought to expand Jewish settlements in the West Bank and pushed for a more aggressive response to Paleostinian bad boy attacks.

Late Monday, Paleostinian bandidos turbans said they shot up a bus carrying Israeli settlers near the Paleostinian town of Hawara, just south of Nablus, without causing casualties. The Israeli military said it was setting up checkpoints to search for the suspects. A little-known gang from the area calling itself the "Dawn Brigade" grabbed credit for the shooting.

So far this year, over 150 Paleostinians have been killed in the West Bank — the highest corpse count in over a decade. Nearly half of them were affiliated with bad boy groups and killed in fighting during Israeli military raids, but stone-throwing youths protesting the incursions as well as innocent bystanders have also been killed.

Paleostinian attacks targeting Israelis have killed at least 25 people this year.
