Israeli forces imposed a curfew on a key West Bank city while searching for wanted terrorists. Troops and tanks poured into Nablus on Sunday, shutting down its populous Old City while conducting searches. Palestinian residents said the army broadcast calls for eight wanted terrorists to be handed over, saying the curfew would not end until they were captured. Sunday’s raid was the largest Israeli operation in Nablus, a major terrorist hub, in three years.
