Israelis killed Palestinian with ‘illegal ammunition’

Over the past three months, 19 Israelis have been killed in near-daily Palestinian attacks, mostly stabbings.

Residents of the camp said that during the raid, Israeli forces fired tear gas canisters, stun grenades and live ammunition “indiscriminately” through the camp’s narrow alleyways.

She could not confirm the death of the Palestinian but said the military was looking into it.

While the violence has mainly been focused on Jerusalem and the West Bank, it has also spilled over into the Gaza Strip, where protesters have clashed with Israeli security forces along the border fence.

Israeli forces shot dead a young Palestinian man during a predawn detention raid into Duheisha refugee camp to the south of Bethlehem on Tuesday.

Israelis who fear this scenario and see a future of internecine conflict, global economic boycotts and increasing isolation want a pullout now, from at least most of the West Bank, even without an agreement with the Palestinians.

In the latest violence, a Palestinian official said a Palestinian youth was shot and killed early Tuesday in clashes with Israeli soldiers at the Deheishe refugee camp in the West Bank.

On Sunday, two Israelis were injured in a vehicle ramming and stabbing attack in Jerusalem by a Palestinian assailant, who was shot dead by a soldier, police said.

The dolls were intercepted en route from the United Arab Emirates at a time of heightened violence between Israelis and Palestinians.

Reportedly, the US was pushing for more meaningful gestures, such as increasing the Palestinians’ responsibilities in the so-called Area C that constitutes around 60% of the West Bank and is under exclusive Israeli control, both security and civilian.

In October 2014, Loefven’s centre-left cabinet in its first month in office took steps to recognize Palestine as a state, in a move which angered Israel. In other words, to grant the military court a façade of professional respectability that the Palestinians, the attorneys and independent legal scholars are convinced it does not have.
