Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian man in clashes early today at the West Bank village of Hussan, near Bethlehem, Palestinian security sources said.
They named the man as Mahmud al-Hamamra, 32, and said he was shot in the chest while throwing rocks at Israelis.
The Israel military told AFP it had no immediate word on such an incident but would look into it.
The clash was reported shortly after the Palestinian leadership, meeting in Ramallah, called for “widespread popular protest in solidarity with Gaza and the resistance.
