The IDF killed two terrorists who threw Molotov cocktails near Karmei Tzur in the West Bank during a targeted counterterrorism operation on Sunday night, according to a statement released by the military. 

During the operation, soldiers spotted several terrorists burning tires and throwing Molotov cocktails towards the community, upon which the soldiers opened fire, killing two and injuring a third.

IDF then began scanning the area for additional threats as firefighters worked to extinguish fires resulting from the tossed Molotovs and burning tires. 

Smoke rises from Israeli agricultural fields near the Gaza Strip border, after being set on fire by a molotov cocktail kite flown over by Palestinians as they protest by the border fence.
