The al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades - the military wing of the Fatah movement - claimed responsibility for the shooting operation that eliminated three Israeli police officers in Tarqumiyah, in the southern West Bank governorate of al-Khalil. 

Martyr Muhannad Mohammed al-Asoud carried out the operation earlier on Sunday, according to the statement issued by the brigades. 

It further noted that the operation came as retribution for the martyr's blood and fell under their responsibility to respond to the Israeli massacres in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. 

Initially, according to the Israeli newspaper Maariv, two Israeli police officers were critically injured and one was seriously wounded in a drive-by shooting on Route 35 east of the Tarqumiyah military checkpoint. Israeli emergency services rushed to the scene in an area to the northwest of the city of al-Khalil. Israeli emergency services later announced the death of the three injured soldiers.

Later, Israeli media reported a high-security alert at the site of the shooting, as military reinforcements arrived at the scene.

It is worth noting, as per the Israeli Army Radio, that 11 bullets were fired at the targeted vehicle, and the shooting took place one kilometer from the Tarqumiyah military checkpoint.

The operation was conducted amid an ongoing Israeli aggression on the northern governorates of the West Bank in Jenin, Tulkarm, and Tubas. This aggression coincides with continued incursions into several cities and towns across the West Bank.
