A Palestinian gunman has killed two Jewish settlers in their car in the occupied West Bank according to Israeli officials.

A statement from the hospital where the two Israelis were brought for medical treatment, said that they were brothers who arrived in a critical condition and were later pronounced dead.

Israeli media identified them as 16-year-old Yagel Yaniv and 21-year-old Halel Yaniv from the Jewish settlement of Har Bracha.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the incident, which came as Israeli and Palestinian security officials met in Jordan to discuss ways of lowering tensions.
