Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian man in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian health officials said Thursday, the latest death in an unabating wave of violence. The death brings the number of Palestinians killed in the West Bank this year to 168, according to a tally by The Associated Press.
It comes amid soaring tensions surrounding Israel`s continuing raids into Palestinian areas in the territory and after the release to house arrest of a Jewish settler accused of involvement in the killing last week of a 19-year-old Palestinian man.
