A Palestinian policeman in the West Bank killed an Israeli civilian and wounded four others today after opening fire at a “suspicious movement,” the Israeli Army Spokesman’s Office said in an e-mailed statement.
Palestinian officials informed the Israeli army of the shooting and the two sides will hold a meeting to investigate the incident later today, according to the statement. The Israelis entered the Palestinian city of Nablus to visit Joseph’s Tomb, a Jewish holy site, without coordinating with their army as required by law, according to the statement.
