A Palestinian was shot dead in the West Bank

Israeli soldiers shot and killed a Palestinian youth in the West Bank on Saturday.

The shooting death of a young man in the West Bank comes less than 24 hours after a Palestinian medical student was killed by police in Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa compound.

Palestinian authorities have identified the young man killed in the West Bank as Mohammed Raed Baradiah. He was 24 years old.
