"Israeli" Army troops shot dead a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs` Brigades on Sunday morning in the Balata refugee camp in the West Bank city of Nablus.
"Israel" Radio said that the Fatah man was killed when Palestinians allegedly hurled an explosive device and shot at soldiers in the refugee camp.
The soldiers exchanged fire with the Palestinians, killing the man and wounding three others.
Palestinians named the man as Osama Saleh, from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs` Brigades, a militant faction of the Fatah party.
Five arrested as clashes break out at protest
Five people were arrested Sunday as left-wing activists and Palestinian farmers scuffled with police at a checkpoint near Jerusalem (al-Quds), during a protest over restrictions on the export of Palestinian produce.
Members of the Ta`ayush organization and Palestinians from the villages of El-Khader and Beit Omar initially tried to march to Jerusalem to protest an "Israeli" ban on the sale of local grapes, which has a serious impact on the farmers` revenues, but were stopped at the Tunnels Checkpoint. The demonstrators then scattered one ton of grapes on the ground, after which the clashes erupted.
Three "Israelis", a Palestinian and a woman foreign activist were arrested during the incident.
Ta`ayush activist Ezra Nawi said that the demonstration was organized in conjunction with the heads of local Palestinian villages as a non-violent protest against the occupation and the construction of the separation fence in the area.
