GAZA CITY, Gaza (CNN) -- A 13-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man, both Palestinians, were killed Sunday during an Israeli military incursion at a small refugee camp in central Gaza, Palestinian security sources said.
Israeli forces entered Al-Maghazi early Sunday conducting searches "as part of the ongoing war against terror in Gaza" the Israel Defense Forces said.
The IDF said that during the raid they arrested 35 men wanted for questioning.
The soldiers came under heavy fire that included an anti-tank missile, and the forces returned fire, the IDF said. The teen threw a Molotov cocktail toward the forces and the forces fired toward him, the IDF said.
The forces concluded their activities and left the camp in the early afternoon.
Meanwhile, the IDF made what it described as four major arrests in the West Bank Sunday.
Four wanted Hamas operatives from Qalqilya and one from Bethlehem were detained.
