As a result of the quickness-to-fire, survey responses show that 66 percent of Palestinian citizens of Israel feel “a high degree of insecurity”, fearing an Israeli could mistake them for an attempted attacker and shoot and kill them.

In addition, Israeli forces fired rubber bullets at Palestinian protesters in Ramallah, wounding nine people, according to Palestinian medics.

On Friday, the Israeli military issued an order to turn several neighborhoods in central al-Khalil (Hebron) into a closed military zone.

The video was shot by Muhammad Shousheh of Jordan’s Roya TV.

At least 72 Palestinians have been killed by Israelis since the beginning of October.

Reporters and cameramen were also filmed being sprayed with pepper spray by an Israeli officer.

The Nobel Peace prize laureate who signed the 1993 Oslo accords aimed at resolving the decades long Palestinian-Israeli conflict was shot dead in Tel Aviv at a peace rally.

The Palestinians carried national flags and chanted anti-Israeli slogans when skirmishes broke out between them and Israeli forces.

In comments recorded by blogger David Collier, Kaufman cited “a friend who lives in East Jerusalem”, who said that a significant number of the recent stabbing attacks in the country were based on “false claims”.

“The clashes are ongoing”, Mohannad Darabee, a photographer at the scene, said. “This is a double violation”.

“He was in a critical situation”, she added. “Our job is only to help them and provide them with medical treatment”, al-Husseini said.

“People of Aida refugee camp, we are the occupation army”, one solider was heard saying in Arabic.

“Inhabitants of Aida, we are the Israeli occupation forces, if you throw stones we will hit you with gas until you die”.

He repeats the threat a second time: “Go home or we will gas you until you die”. He was pursued by a military vehicle and run over, Ynet news agency reported.

The baby, named as Ramadan Mohammad Faisal Thawabta, suffocated inside his family home in Beit Fajjar, a village south of Bethlehem.

One Palestinian was buried separately in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem. He said the age restrictions were enforced only partially. The official said that the rest of the bodies would be handed over only if quiet returned to Hebron and no more attackers set out from the area. The draft demands both Israel and Palestine take steps “to end the violence, avoid incitement and protect civilians”. In another incident caught on camera, Israeli security forces could be seen punching and kicking two journalists, both wearing vests marked “press”.

Israel on Friday afternoon released the body of 16-year-old Muhammad Zakarna, from the Jenin area, who was killed while attempting to stab an Israeli security guard last weekend.

The burial of the five Palestinians from Hebron will take place on Saturday, with the funeral procession scheduled to start at the Hussein Stadium in Hebron before being laid to rest at the Martyrs Cemetery.
