The government warned foreign reporters to leave the closed West Bank zone, and hospitals faced access restrictions as authorities investigated the shooting and the incident’s broader safety implications.

Sharon vows expanded offensive to crush militants
Israel's premier vowed to crush militants with a broadened offensive and root out their infrastructure, signaling no cease fire until terrorism ends. The plan mobilizes 20,000 reserves at great cost while cabinet members warn of vague goals and markets react with stock drops and a rising dollar. In Ramallah, Israeli troops tighten isolation around Arafat as violence resumes with two self detonations killing 15 and wounding dozens. Bush condemns the attacks and U.N. calls delay on timetable for withdrawal.
