An Israeli couple were shot and killed Thursday in the West Bank
in front of their four children, according to Israeli officials.
"Initial
reports suggest that moments ago, two Israeli civilians were shot to death when
an assailant fired at their vehicle on a route between the communities of Elon
Moreh and Itamar. Forces are conducting a search of the area," according
to a text alert sent Thursday by the Israeli military spokesperson to CNN's
Oren Liebermann.
Israeli Defense
Forces spokesman Peter Lerner said on Twitter that the couple were shot in
front of their four children.
Elon Moreh and
Itamar are Israeli settlements in the northern part of the West Bank, near
Nablus.
