Two killed in Israeli-Palestinian violent tension
Israeli soldiers have fatally shot a Palestinian woman who they said tried to ram them with her auto in the West Bank. New violence erupted in the West Bank the day before with four Palestinian attackers shot dead by Israeli forces, as Israel recoiled over a video showing Jewish extremists apparently celebrating a Palestinian toddler’s death. “The terrorist pulled out a knife and tried to stab the policeman and was quickly killed by police gunfire”.

The incident is the latest in three months of violence. At least 127 Palestinians have died in the same period, of whom 87 Israel says were attacking or attempting to attack Israelis.
Palestinian youth clashed with Israeli security forces near the West Bank city of Bethlehem Friday.
Palestinian health officials identified the Palestinian woman as Mahdia Hammad, 38.
The ministry said Hani Wahdan, 22, was killed as he was throwing stones near the Nahal Oz crossing point.
A man tried to stab an Israeli police officer on Saturday near Jerusalem’s Old City and was killed, a police spokeswoman said.
The other Palestinian who died was a man who was shot by troops in clashes in the Gaza Strip.
Around 40 Palestinians were wounded in the clashes that took place at several points along the barrier that separates Israel from the Gaza Strip.

The surge in violence since October has been fueled by Palestinians’ frustration over Israel’s 48-year occupation of land they seek for an independent state and the expansion of settlements in those territories which were captured by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war.
