JENIN, West Bank (AP) — Israeli forces disguised as civilian women and medical workers stormed a hospital in the occupied West Bank and killed three Palestinian militants. Tuesday’s dramatic raid underscored how deadly violence has spilled into the territory from the war in Gaza. The Palestinian Health Ministry says Israeli forces opened fire inside the wards of the Ibn Sina Hospital in the town of Jenin. A hospital spokesperson says there was no exchange of fire, indicating it was a targeted killing. The military says the militants were using the hospital as a hideout, without providing evidence. It has alleged that one of those targeted in the raid transferred weapons and ammunition to others for a planned attack.
