Rioters hurdled bombs at two military vehicles, stationed just outside the town of Beit Ummar and fired shots at soldiers who responded with live fire, the IDF said.
Local officials said that two Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces on Tuesday morning, one near Hebron, and the other, in a separate incident, near Ramallah.
The IDF has been conducting almost nightly raids in Judea and Samaria since launching Operation Breakwater, a counterterrorism campaign that began in the summer in response to deadly terror attacks carried out by Palestinians in Israel earlier in the year.
