6 killed as PA police clash with Hamas gunmen in Kalkilya
Six people were killed - including two top Hamas operatives - in a shootout between Palestinian security personnel and members of the group's armed wing in Kalkilya early Sunday morning.
The firefight ensued when Palestinian police surrounded a house in the West Bank town in order to arrest Hamas gunmen inside.
Palestinian sources named the two dead Hamas men as Muhammad Yassin and Muhammad a-Saman, saying the former had died after attempting to detonate an explosives belt alongside the policemen.
Three Palestinian police officers and a civilian were also killed in the firefight.ByREUTERS06/08/2025 07:57 AMByREUTERS06/08/2025 05:36 AMByMAARIV06/07/2025 02:33 PMByWALLA!06/07/2025 11:18 AMByREUTERS06/07/2025 03:25 AM
