Israeli forces kill Palestinian man in Hebron

Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian man in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron, the Palestinian health ministry said.

The man, whom the ministry could not immediately identify, was shot near the al-Arroub camp located between Bethlehem and Hebron.

Local media published footage earlier showing a man being shot by Israeli forces near the al-Arroub camp. Middle East Eye could not immediately establish if they were the same incident.

The killing takes the death toll of Palestinians in the West Bank during the past 16 days to 91, a massive surge from the monthly average of 21 this year. 

Translation: young man was shot dead by the occupation forces at the entrance to al-Arroub camp, north of Hebron.
