JERUSALEM - Two Norwegian observers from an international force in Hebron were shot and killed when Palestinians opened fire on their car Tuesday in a West Bank ambush, the Israeli military said. <br>
<br>
The observers, serving in the Temporary International Presence in Hebron, were driving on a bypass road used mostly by Jewish settlers when their car came under fire near Halhoul, a West Bank town north of Hebron. A third observer was slightly wounded, the military said. <br>
<br>
There was no immediate word from the peace force. <br>
<br>
The force, made up of unarmed observers from Scandinavian and European countries, was set up under a 1997 agreement dividing Hebron into Palestinian and Israeli-controlled zones. <br>
