Israeli forces kill 3 Palestinians linked to deaths of British-Israelis.

Israeli troops killed three Palestinian militants in a daytime raid in Nablus, West Bank, who were wanted in connection with a shooting attack that killed a British-Israeli woman and two of her daughters. The Hamas militant group claimed responsibility for the April attack. In a separate incident, a 20-year-old soldier shot and killed a 26-year-old Palestinian woman who had stabbed and lightly wounded him. The violence in Nablus comes at a particularly sensitive time in the region, days after a prominent Palestinian prisoner who was staging a lengthy hunger strike over his detention died in Israeli custody.
