Eleven Palestinians were killed by Israeli army bullets and more than 100 injured Wednesday in a military operation in the city of Nablus, in the northern occupied West Bank, according to officials in the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Bombs and gunshots were heard near the old city of Nablus on Wednesday, as Israeli forces attempted to storm the city, and Palestinian gunmen clashed with them.

The Israeli army said that it had killed 3 of the wanted gunmen, inside a besieged house, after they refused to surrender.

But many of the dead were civilians, including two elderly people.
