JERUSALEM (AP) — Palestinian authorities say that two Palestinians were killed in separate violent confrontations with Israelis in the occupied West Bank. The Palestinian Health Ministry says that the Israeli army killed a 21-year-old Palestinian militant during a pre-dawn military raid in the northern West Bank on Wednesday. The Israeli army says a gunfight erupted between Palestinian militants and Israeli security forces. Separately, a Palestinian assailant stabbed and wounded an Israeli before he was shot and killed at a settlement in the territory’s south. Wednesday’s violence was the latest in a surge in attacks in the occupied territory, following the deadliest year for Palestinians in the territory in 18 years.
