Netanyahu orders closure of West Bank after five Israelis wounded in shooting attack

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the closure of the occupied West Bank, immediately following two Palestinian gunmen opening fire Friday on an Israeli military checkpoint, wounding at least five.

Videos from the scene depict a firefight between the Palestinian gunmen and Israeli forces that lasted at least several minutes with repeated bursts of gunfire ringing out. In one Reuters video, an Israeli responder yells that the shooting has been going on for at least 20 minutes and they were struggling to remove the wounded from the scene.
