TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — The Palestinian Health Ministry says a Palestinian man has been killed by Israeli fire, which Israeli police said occurred during a West Bank raid. Police allege the man threw a firebomb at the forces early on Thursday. It was latest in a wave of Israeli-Palestinian fighting in the West Bank and Jerusalem that has killed more than 130 Palestinians this year, making 2022 the deadliest since 2015. Also on Thursday, Israel said it was removing checkpoints in and out of the city of Nablus. Israel had imposed the restrictions weeks ago, clamping down on the city in response to a new militant group.
