Israeli soldiers shot dead a 12-year-old Palestinian boy yesterday during confrontations with protesters in a refugee camp in the West Bank town of Jenin.
Palestinian witnesses said the soldiers had come under a hail of stones thrown from rooftops as they were searching for wanted militants in the camp. The troops opened fire, killing Ibrahim Mohammed Ikmeil, 12, medics at a hospital in Jenin said.
Israeli military sources said the soldiers, who were in a Palestinian house, were surrounded by people throwing stones and fire bombs, and had fired at the "main provocateur in the demonstration." They said there was no confirmation of shooting a child, that Palestinians were shooting at the soldiers also at the time and that the IDF would investigate the incident.
However, Palestinians said the protesters were only throwing stones. The IDF's operation in Jenin has been going on for four days with the intention of capturing wanted men from all the organizations - the Fatah, the Islamic Jihad and the Hamas. So far 11 have been captured, seven of them yesterday.
Along Israel's border with the Gaza Strip, troops shot and wounded a Palestinian man who was hunting wild birds, hospital staff said Saturday. They said the 42-year-old man was shot in the back and was still carrying several birds when he was brought to the emergency room.
Three Palestinians yesterday lightly wounded an Israeli security guard in a gas station near the settlement Psagot east of Ramallah.
The guard managed to shoot at his attackers, but they overpowered him, took his personal firearm and fled to the nearby refugee camp Qalandiyah.
