Israeli troops kill Palestinian in West Bank firefight

JERUSALEM (AP) — Palestinian authorities say Israeli troops killed a Palestinian man during a firefight in the occupied West Bank. The Israeli military said Wednesday that its soldiers came under fire during the arrest of a wanted person in the Faraa refugee camp in the northern West Bank. The Palestinian Health Ministry said 21-year-old Younis Ghassan Tayeh died from a bullet wound to the chest. Israel has been conducting near-daily arrest raids in the West Bank for months, which were prompted by a spate of deadly attacks against Israelis earlier this year that killed 19 people.
