Local Editor

A 16-year-old Palestinian boy was martyred by "Israeli" forces at a refugee camp in the Occupied West Bank, Palestinian medical officials said.

Two others were injured in the incident, which happened in the Jenin Refugee Camp earlier on Tuesday.
The condition of one of the two injured is serious.

Doctors at a Jenin hospital said Majed Lahlouh was killed with a bullet to his heart. The wounded men also suffered gunshot wounds, they said.
An "Israeli" military spokeswoman had no initial comment.

Eyewitnesses said the "Israeli" troops entered the narrow streets of the Jenin camp at dawn, apparently seeking to arrest a local resident.

They further attacked the youths with live gunfire.

"Israeli" forces have killed 11 Palestinians there this year, most of them in clashes, compared with three killed in the same period in 2012, according to United Nations figures.
