A 14-year-old Palestinian boy was killed tonight (Tuesday and Wednesday) as a result of clashes with IDF forces in the Hebron district. And incendiary bottles.
The attacked fighters responded with means to disperse demonstrations and live fire during which the Palestinian boy was killed and three others were wounded. On the other hand, an Israeli soldier was lightly wounded from stone throwing. The Palestinian media reports that the boy killed, Zaid al Fumi, is a resident of al-Fawar refugee camp. Hamas is very dominant in the Hebron sector in general and the al-Fawar refugee camp in particular.
The incident joins two more incidents that happened yesterday. The Golani Patrol fighter Major General Omar Ben Yigal was killed as a result of a stone's throw at Jenin. At noon, a terrorist attack on Qalandiya Crossing was foiled after a Palestinian tried to stab a security guard using a screwdriver - and was shot.
