Israel has killed three Palestinians, including two children, in an air strike in the occupied West Bank town of Tammun on Wednesday. Palestinian sources said the three victims of the attack near the city of Tubas in the north of the occupied territory were cousins.

The Israel Defense Forces said it is pursuing the perpetrators of the shooting in Funduq. Hamas praised the attack but did not claim responsibility.

Multiple Israeli settler attacks against Palestinians have been reported in parts of the occupied West Bank after gunmen killed three Israelis and injured eight others earlier on Monday in the latest explosion of violence there.
