Palestinian killed by IDF troops in riot near Ramallah

Some 50 Palestinians began a riot in the al-Am'ari Refugee Camp near Ramallah Wednesday morning when IDF troops entered the area in an attempt to arrest a wanted Palestinian man. The rioters threw stones and Molotov cocktails at the Israeli soldiers, and the IDF said that one of the Palestinians threw an explosive at the troopers. According to the IDF, Security forces answered with live fire and killed the Palestinian who had thrown the explosive while the rest of the soldiers used crowd control measures against the rioters.

 

The Palestinians said that the man who was killed was 22-year-old Issa al-Qatari, and that the violence broke out after IDF troops arrived at the refugee camp looking to arrest Ala Jelita, a wanted Hamas operative.
