Khamdan Shoman,34 , and Mohammed Arab,30 , were killed after leaving their car in Beitunia near Ramallah, said a local security source.
An Israeli army spokeswoman said the two men were wearing civilian clothes, said Reuters.
She said one of them was shot in the building after he refused to drop his weapon. A second was shot outside.

He said the incident took place in a building near Preventive Security offices in Bitounia.
In a separate incident in the city of Ramallah, the Israeli army said it killed two other Palestinians.
Israeli troops also arrested three other Palestinians while taking up position around the home of a suspected member from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades.
On Thursday, Israeli forces gunned down four Palestinians, including a teenager, in the occupied West Bank.
One of the slain Palestinians was reportedly mutilated by Israeli soldiers.
