Palestinian media and the Yesh Din rights group report that a 10-year-old boy was shot dead by Israeli troops in the northern West Bank village of Burin, close to Nablus.
Yesh Din says Amr Mohamed Najjar was shot as he got out of a vehicle with his family in the village center to go shopping.
The rights group says another two Palestinians are wounded in Burin, one of whom was shot and is seriously hurt and one who was allegedly beaten by troops.
The IDF says it has no immediate comment on the incident.
