Six "Israeli" occupation troops were wounded Wednesday, including three troops, in clashes with Palestinian resistance fighters early Thursday during an operation in the Old City of Nablus, in the northern West Bank.
"Six soldiers were wounded by shrapnel as they were taking part in an operation to arrest wanted activists in the Old Town of Nablus," an "Israeli" source said.
"There were also exchanges of fire, and four of the wounded, including an officer, were evacuated by helicopter to the Tel Hachomer hospital in Tel Aviv," the source said, adding that the operation was ongoing.
Three of the six were seriously wounded, the source said.
The Al-Aqsa Brigades, an armed group linked to the Fatah party of Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas, issued a statement claiming responsibility for throwing explosive devices at "Israeli" occupation troops.
A Palestinian security source said the troops arrived in Nablus in eight jeeps. They imposed a curfew on the Old Town and surrounded several buildings, where they arrested at least two armed men they had been looking for.
On Wednesday, at least 13 Palestinians were martyred and two "Israeli" occupation soldiers were wounded in two separate "Israeli" operations in the Gaza Strip.
