ALBAWABA - Two Israeli residents who entered Qalqilya in the northern West Bank earlier today and went missing have been found by Israeli security personnel. It was alleged that the two had come into the city to get their automobile fixed. 

The missing people's finding was publicized by Israeli media outlets, such as Channel 12. On the other hand, neither their condition nor the circumstances surrounding their abduction have been officially announced by the Israeli military. 

Israeli soldiers entered Qalqilya to look for the two Israelis who had vanished, as earlier reports from Channel 14 verified. The soldiers apparently came under fire throughout the mission. 

Additionally, according to Israeli army radio, soldiers came uncovered an explosive device while searching the city.   Whether Palestinian factions were engaged in the event is not confirmed at this time. 

This event follows a similar occurrence in June in which unidentified assailants shot and murdered an Israeli settler inside his vehicle in Qalqilya.
