ALBAWABA - A Palestinian civilian was killed, and another was wounded, by Israel Defense Forces, during their raid into Askar refugee camp, east of Nablus, in the northern West Bank.

Dawn on Monday, two citizens were wounded by live bullets during clashes with the "occupation forces" in the camp. "One of them died later of a critical wound in the chest," said Ahmad Jebril, director of ambulance and emergency at the Red Crescent in Nablus.
