Israel arrests Palestinian suspect in killing of two soldiers: police

JERUSALEM, Jan 8, 2019 (AFP) – Israeli forces arrested overnight a
Palestinian accused of killing two soldiers last month in the occupied West
Bank, police said Tuesday.

Israel’s domestic security service, the Shin Beth, has also implicated the
suspect in the killing of a third Israeli, although it has not given details.

Israeli media have reported that the third victim was a baby, who was born
prematurely after a shooting attack on December 9 and died a few days later.
