Ramallah, November 16 (RHC)-- At least two Palestinians have been killed and three others wounded in clashes between Israeli military forces and a group of Palestinian protesters in the occupied West Bank.

Palestinian Health Ministry spokesman Mohammed Awawdeh said the skirmishes erupted when Israeli troops stormed the Qalandia refugee camp to demolish the home of Palestinian Mohammed Abu Shahin early on Monday.

Abu Shahin is accused by Israel of fatally shooting an Israeli settler, identified as Danny Gonen, near the illegal Dolev settlement, located 27 militants northwest of Jerusalem, on June 19th.

Hundreds of residents in the Qalandia refugee camp hurled stones and Molotov cocktails at Israeli forces, prompting the latter to open fire.

On Saturday, Israeli troops destroyed three houses belonging to Palestinians in the northern West Bank city of Nablus, approximately 49 kilometers north of Jerusalem, and the other in the town of Silwad, located 12 kilometers northeast of Ramallah.

Nine Palestinians were wounded during clashes that followed the demolitions. Two of the injured Palestinians were struck by live ammunition.

Also on Monday, Israeli forces arrested seven Palestinians during a series of raids on a number of houses in al-Khalil (Henron), situated 30 kilometers south of Jerusalem. The Israeli forces broke into the homes and rummaged through them, causing excessive property damage before detaining the Palestinians.
