Israel kills Palestinian gunman, woman despite truce

The Israeli-Palestinian cease-fire only applies to Gaza, and not to the West Bank, where the IDF operation took place. As The Independent notes:

So far, the ceasefire applies only to Gaza. Israel agreed to withdraw its troops; the Palestinians agreed to stop launching rockets, preparing suicide bombers and digging tunnels under the border fence….

If the ceasefire holds, Israeli and Palestinian officials hope it will be followed by a similar agreement on the West Bank.
