Ramallah - KUNA
The Israeli Army killed a Palestinian youth, while injuring another at Gush Etzion settlement IN Bethlehem, southern the West Bank on Thursday.
Young Osama Abu-Jendiah was killed after the Israeli forces shot him in the head, while they injured and arrested his friend Mousa Jibreen Al-Najjar Wednesday at midnight, Head of Yatta Municipality Youssef Makhamreh told KUNA
The Army hampered the ambulances to reach the scene, and seized the body of the deceased, he added.
Israeli radio quoted military sources as saying that that the two Palestinians were attempting to damage settlers' vehicles in Gush Etzion, and thus were shot by the Army.
Makhamreh denied the Israeli report, saying that (they) open fire easily on any Palestine passing by this settlement block, following the abduction and killing of three settlers at Gush Etizon last June.
