RAMALLAH, West Bank—Israeli soldiers shot dead a Palestinian in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday, medics and a terrorist group said, in clashes that erupted after an arrest raid.
It was the second time in two days that Israeli forces have killed a Palestinian during a late-night incursion.
The Israeli military said its forces had apprehended two suspects in what it described as “counter-terrorism activities” in the city of Jenin. Subsequently, it said dozens of Palestinians threw rocks and explosives devices and opened fire at the soldiers, who responded with live ammunition.
The Palestinian foreign ministry condemned the raid, saying the slain man, Ahmad Massad, had been summarily executed.
