Palestinian youth shot, injured in Israeli army operation in West Bank

Officials say a total of ten Palestinians are hurt, three of them from live fire. The injuries came in a raid that the Israeli army says was to arrest suspected militants in Nablus.

The Palestinians say the 14-year-old was hit in the head by live fire.

Palestinian witnesses say dozens of youths threw firebombs and stones at Israeli forces. The troops entered the city with 40 jeeps, backed by Apache helicopters, and surrounded houses.
