Israeli forces have killed three members of Palestinian armed groups in a hospital in the occupied West Bank.

CCTV footage showed members of an undercover Israeli hit squad disguised as medics and other civilians making their way through a corridor of the hospital in Jenin with assault rifles raised.

The Israeli military said the men they targeted were hiding in the hospital and that one was about to carry out an attack.

The Palestinian Authority's ministry of health accused Israel of carrying out a "new massacre inside hospitals".

Hamas, an armed Palestinian Islamist group which is fighting a war with Israel in Gaza triggered by its unprecedented attacks on Israel on 7 October, said the Israeli forces had "executed three fighters", including one of its members.

Another armed group, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, said two of those killed were its members and were brothers. It added that one of them had been receiving treatment at the hospital.
