Palestinian Fires on Israel Troops in West Bank, Shot Dead
A Palestinian who shot at Israeli troops near Nablus in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday was killed by soldiers who returned fire, Israel's army said.
"Troops who were at a military post adjacent to the southern exit of the city of Nablus spotted an assailant driving out of the city armed with a pistol who fired at them, and responded with fire ... The assailant has been neutralised," a statement said. An army spokesperson confirmed to AFP that the suspect was killed.
