> Two Israeli soldiers were killed in a shooting near Hebron on Friday morning. Israel responded with a sweeping military operation and lockdown across the occupied West Bank. Palestinians accuse Israel of collective punishment, citing communities under lockdown, families forced from their homes and demolished buildings.
