A Palestinian teenager threw a petrol bomb at Israeli soldiers in the south of the occupied West Bank and was shot dead on Friday, the Israeli military said. At least two Palestinians threw a Molotov cocktail at a military jeep on patrol close to Halhul north of the West Bank city of Hebron, a military spokeswoman said. Responding to an "immediate threat", the soldiers fired on them, killing one. The other was arrested, she said.
The Palestinian health ministry confirmed the death, identifying him as 17-year-old Haitham al-Bau. His death brings to 165 the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in four months of violence. More than half of them were alleged assailants, while others were killed during protests. Since October 1, 26 Israelis, an American and an Eritrean have also died. Elsewhere on Friday clashes erupted during a new "day of rage".
Near Ramallah in the West Bank, clashes broke out as around 100 youths threw stones at Israeli soldiers who responded with live fire after using tear gas and rubber bullets, an AFP journalist said. Clashes also broke out between Palestinian demonstrators and Israeli soldiers along the Gaza-Israel border. The Palestinian health ministry said eight protesters were shot and wounded by army gunfire, including a 13-year-old boy left in critical condition by a bullet in the stomach. Protests are common on Fridays, the Muslim day of rest, in Gaza as well as the West Bank, which Israel has occupied since 1967.
