Palestinian man killed in West Bank clashes

A Palestinian man was killed during clashes in the northern West Bank on Friday, Palestinian security sources tell AFP.

They say Tamer Smour, 22, was hit by a live bullet in the chest in the city of Tulkarem.

A spokesman for the Red Crescent tells AFP that 39 Palestinians were wounded by live ammunition and rubber bullets fired by Israeli forces during clashes throughout the West Bank today.

In east Jerusalem, Israeli police arrested two Palestinians during a clash that took place outside the Old City after Friday prayers earlier today.
