ANKARA (AA) - The Israeli army early Tuesday killed three Palestinians, including a woman, during raids across the occupied West Bank.

In a statement, the Palestinian Health Ministry said two Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire in Sa'ir town, southern occupied West Bank, and a woman was killed in the northern city of Tulkarem.

The official Palestinian news agency Wafa quoted local sources as saying that the Israeli army raided the town of Sa'ir and opened fire on Palestinians, killing two Palestinians.

The Israeli forces raided several homes in Sa'ir during which the soldiers harshly interrogated people and assaulted them.

Tensions have been running high across the occupied West Bank amid a deadly Israeli offensive that killed over 39,000 people in the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, 2023.

At least 581 Palestinians have since been killed and nearly 5,400 others injured by Israeli army fire in the occupied West Bank, according to the Health Ministry.

The International Court of Justice, in an advisory opinion on Friday, declared Israel's decades-long occupation of Palestinian land "unlawful" and said it should be brought to an end "as rapidly as possible."
