Palestinian killed in West Bank
A Palestinian teenager has been shot dead by Israeli soldiers in the West Bank city of Nablus, according to Palestinian security and medical sources.
Jamil Jabaji, 15, was shot in the head close to the Askar refugee camp after throwing stones at an Israeli army vehicle, the sources said.
The Israeli army has not yet made any comment.
Israel has killed five Palestinians in the West Bank since a ceasefire took hold in the Gaza Strip a week ago.
A ceasefire in Gaza continues to hold. It is intended to pave the way for further dialogue between Palestinian and Israeli politicians.
However, the ceasefire does not apply to the West Bank.
