The military said soldiers came under attack "during routine security activity near the town of Jaba" and shot a man suspected of throwing a firebomb.
Earlier this month the UN issued a report claiming 60 Palestinians in the West Bank and east Jerusalem were killed by security forces since the start of 2022, which is 46 percent more than in the first half of last year.
