Sharjah 24 – AFP: A Palestinian teenager was killed in the occupied West Bank Thursday after what the Israeli army claimed was an attack on a soldier.
The Palestinian health ministry said it had been informed of "the death of a citizen by the Israeli army's bullets".

It identified him as 17-year-old Haytham Hani Mubarak.

Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that six Palestinians had been arrested in an overnight raid in Jenin refugee camp, a flashpoint in the northern West Bank.

The Palestinian Red Crescent said it had treated 12 people for injuries following a separate raid by the Israeli army in Nablus.

Israel has stepped up operations in the northern West Bank in particular after a wave of attacks against Israeli targets.

It has carried out near nightly raids on Palestinian-administered towns and cities, that have sparked frequent clashes with residents.

On Wednesday, a Palestinian was killed during an Israeli raid in al-Fara camp near Jenin. Two more were killed during incursions earlier this week into Jenin and Qabatiya to its south.
