JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli forces shot and killed a teenage Palestinian protester during a clash in the West Bank late Wednesday, raising tensions already heightened by the death of a Palestinian prisoner and renewed fighting between Israel and Gaza militants.
The late night killing capped a day of rioting throughout the West Bank in protest at the prisoner’s death from cancer and raised the likelihood of further unrest in the Palestinian territories Thursday.
