Two 'armed' individuals killed in Israeli drone attack in the West Bank

The Israeli army announced on Thursday, August 25, that two armed individuals were targeted and killed during an 'anti-terrorism operation' in the city of Nablus, located in the West Bank. According to the Times of Israel, the Israeli army stated that military forces targeted 'terrorists who were throwing explosives at them' during the 'anti-terrorism operation' in the area. The report also mentioned that Israeli army forces and border police secured the entry of Jews to the Tomb of Joseph. Hours earlier, Hezbollah in Lebanon announced that two members of the group were killed following an Israeli drone attack on a vehicle in Marjayoun in southern Lebanon. The group, supported by the Islamic Republic, identified the deceased members as Mohammad Badreddine and Hussein Yassin Sha'ito. Hezbollah, which is allied with Hamas and supported by the Iranian government, has been exchanging fire with the Israeli army almost daily since Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7 of last year and the onset of the war in Gaza. While Hezbollah and the Islamic Republic have threatened to avenge the blood of Ismail Haniyeh and Fouad Shukr, senior American and Arab diplomats are working to prevent the escalation of the war. In this context, ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel are set to resume on Thursday, August 25, in Doha, Qatar.
