A second manhunt began on Sunday after a drive-by shooting near the Jewish settlement of Ofra that wounded seven Israelis, including a 21-year-old woman who was seven months pregnant. Doctors delivered the woman’s baby boy, but he died Wednesday evening as a result of the shooting.
Later on Wednesday night, security forces found one of the suspects, Saleh Omar Barghouti, 29, in Surda, north of Ramallah, and tried to arrest him. When he tried to flee in a taxi, the police said, the Israelis opened fire on the vehicle, killing Mr. Barghouti and wounding another passenger.
Hamas, the Gaza-based Islamic militant group, claimed both Mr. Na’alowa and Mr. Barghouti as members and vowed to avenge their deaths, but stopped short of claiming responsibility for either of their attacks.
