Occupied Jerusalem: A Palestinian gunman killed two Israeli security guards at an industrial zone on the West Bank boundary on Friday, Israeli military officials said.

A manhunt has been launched for the gunman in the Netzanei Oz industrial zone, across the boundary from the Palestinian-ruled town of Tulkarm.

"We are treating this as a terrorist attack. It may have come from the outside, but there are also hundreds of Palestinians who work at Netzanei Oz," a military spokeswoman said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
