Israel ordered a “full lockdown” of the occupied West Bank Friday after the Israeli military said two of its soldiers were killed during an attack that also left two Palestinian gunmen dead.

What the coverage shows
Both outlets center the military operation in the West Bank and connect it to the killing of two Israeli soldiers. CBS News frames it as the military closing West Bank crossings before elections, while PBS NewsHour instead leads with the soldiers’ deaths and notes that Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the army to prepare for a full closure. PBS is alone in mentioning video from the Israeli army showing the firefight at a checkpoint.
