Home of suspected Palestinian militant raided

Israeli forces have raided the home of a suspected Palestinian suicide bomber who is believed to have killed four Israelis at a Jewish settlement in the West Bank.

According to Israeli officials, the suicide bomber, who was reportedly disguised as a Jewish hitchhiker, blew himself up near the entrance to the northern settlement of Kedumim.

Separately, Israeli war planes have launched attacks on areas in Gaza which, the Israeli military says, are used by Palestinian militants to fire rockets into Israel.
