AFP, NABLUS: Two Palestinian teenagers fired on Israeli soldiers before being shot dead in the northern occupied West Bank on Sunday, Israel’s army said, the latest deaths in a months-long wave of unrest. An army statement said the pair attacked an Israeli patrol west of the city of Jenin with rocks before firing on soldiers with a rifle. “The force responded to the shooting and fired towards the attackers, resulting in their deaths,” it said. The Palestinian health ministry named those killed as Nihad Waked and Fuad Waked, both 15 years old.
