Palestinian killed in Israeli West Bank raid

A Palestinian man was killed by Israeli fire during a military raid in the occupied West Bank on Monday, Palestinian health officials said.

It was the latest death in a recent surge of violence in the territory.

The Israeli military has been carrying out daily raids throughout the West Bank since the spring.

The official Palestinian news agency Wafa said soldiers entered the Deheishe refugee camp near the city of Bethlehem early on Monday, sparking clashes with a group of local residents.
