Israel: Three Palestinians killed by soldiers

ISRAELI occupation forces killed three more Palestinians yesterday, including a 16-year-old boy, as US Vice-President Joe Biden attacked the Palestinian Authority for “failing to condemn” violence.

Teenager Ahmad Yousef Amer was gunned down by soldiers after allegedly attempting a stabbing attack at a military checkpoint outside the blockaded village of al-Zawiya in Salfit district yesterday morning.

Another resident was shot and wounded in the incident.
