Israeli Troops Invade Two Palestinian Cities
Israeli troops invaded the Palestinian-ruled West Bank city of Tulkarm and Kalkiliya Saturday morning, sparking new clashes that resulted in the deaths of a Palestinian security officer and one civilian, Palestinian sources said.
It was reported that Israeli warplanes, tanks and armored vehicles advanced into the two cities from different directions, and Israeli troops and Palestinian gunmen exchanged gunfire.
Six of the eight Palestinian autonomous cities along the west bank have been attacked and surrounded by Israeli troops. On October 19, seven Palestinians were killed by Israeli troops in the conflict in Gaza strip and the West Bank, including one child and one pregnant woman.
