Three settlers were wounded Tuesday morning in an roadside bombing against a schoolbus near the settlement of Sadeh Calev, outside Hebron.  

 

There were three youths wounded on the blast, two seriously, and one moderately, which took place beneath or alongside the bus, according to Israeli media reports.  

 

The Israeli army has sent a helicopter to assist in evacuating the wounded, Army Radio reported.  

 

Earlier, the bodies of two Palestinians were discovered in Hebron. One of the bodies was that of a Hebron University public relations official, the second that of a worker.  

 

Palestinian sources said the two - Ayman Joulani and Anan al-Ashab – were suspected of aiding Israel. They were reported missing for two weeks.  

 

Joulani was shot dead in A-Salame Street and Al-Ashab was shot outside Hebron University. Palestinian police said they found spent cartridges close to the bodies. 

 

One of the bodies was found near where local Fatah-Tanzim commander, Marwan Zaloum was assassinated by Israeli security forces several weeks ago. (Albawaba.com)
