国际英语新闻:Palestinian teen killed in clashes with Israeli soldiers
RAMALLAH, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) -- A Palestinian teenager was killed Tuesday in clashes between dozens of Palestinian demonstrators and Israeli soldiers near the southern West Bank city of Hebron, medics said.
Mohamed Abu Hashash, 17, was shot dead by Israeli soldiers' gunfire in the clashes that broke out between the soldiers and dozens of Palestinian stone throwers at al-Fawar refugee camp close to the city.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society emergency announced that 42 Palestinians were injured in the clashes since early Tuesday in the Palestinian refugee camp. The Israeli army forces stormed the refugee camp later in the day.
Eyewitnesses said the Israeli soldiers fired intensive gunfire and tear gas canisters, adding that one teenager was killed and dozens injured, many of them are still in moderate conditions.
Spokesman of Hamas movement in Gaza, Sami Abu Zuhri, said in an emailed press statement that his movement condemns the Israeli army escalation against the Palestinians in the refugee camp.
The Israeli army forces have been carrying out a regular security activity and searching for Palestinians wanted for being involved in planning attacks into Israel, reported Israeli Public Radio.
The Israeli army forces seized pistols, hand grenades and commandos' knives during the security mission, said an Israeli army spokesman quoted by the report.
Since October last year, tension between Israel and the Palestinians has been growing, with figures showing 220 Palestinians and 40 Israelis been killed.
