Israel arrests Palestinian attackers who killed guard

JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military says it arrested a pair of Palestinian attackers who allegedly shot and killed a security guard at the entrance of a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank. The shooting took place late Friday at the entrance to Ariel, a major settlement in the northern West Bank. In a separate incident, Palestinian officials say a 27-year-old man was killed by Israeli fire in the West Bank. The violence could further fuel tensions that have soared over the past two months. Fifteen Israelis and 27 Palestinians have been killed in fighting in recent weeks.
