Reports said the victims were senior members of the armed wings of Hamas and the al-Aqsa Brigades of Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas’s Fatah organisation.
The Israeli army confirmed that a drone had targeted armed terrorists in Tulkarm.
It added that gun battles also occurred in the city between soldiers and armed residents.
The Palestinian Red Crescent emergency service reported that a woman was killed and three others injured in the incident.
