Three people were killed and dozens wounded Tuesday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said, as Israeli forces raided the West Bank city of Nablus. The Israeli military said a senior militant commander was among the dead.
The latest violence comes two days after deadly fighting between Israel and Islamic Jihad militants in the coastal enclave of Gaza was halted by a truce. In the old city of Nablus, an AFP correspondent reported Palestinians trading gunfire with Israeli security forces.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said its medics treated 69 people for gunshot wounds across the Nablus area, at least four of them in critical condition.
