Israeli soldiers shot and killed a Palestinian man who approached a military checkpoint near the northern West Bank city of Nablus and ignored orders to halt, the army said.
The man was carrying a glass bottle when he was shot today, according to an Israeli army spokeswoman who spoke under military rules of anonymity. The army denied earlier media reports that the man was carrying a knife and tried to stab a soldier.
