THREE people were killed in an overnight Israeli strike on a home in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry said today.

It said the strike had hit the Tulkarem refugee camp, a built-up residential area dating back to the 1948 war that accompanied Israel’s creation. 

The Israeli military said its aircraft had struck “several” militants in Tulkarem as ground forces continued a search for buried explosives.
