IDF raids Hebron hospital in search of attack perpetrators
A large number of IDF forces raided a Palestinian hospital in Hebron Friday evening, Channel 10 reported. The forces were searching for terrorists wounded during an attack earlier in the day, in which two young Israeli men were killed.

The two were IDF soldiers on leave, Private Ahikam Amihai (20) and Sergeant David Rubin (21). According to Israel Radio, the two were hiking through the hills outside Hebron with another woman when they were approached by a jeep carrying several Palestinian gunmen, who opened fire on them. The woman fled and hid while the other two, who were armed, returned fire.

In the exchanges of fire that ensued, the two managed to hit several of the gunmen before being gunned down themselves. According to Palestinian sources quoted by Army Radio, one of the attackers was killed on the spot while another was seriously wounded and died some time later. Security forces believe that two other gunmen were lightly wounded, the radio station reported.
