Israeli forces shot dead a 15-year-old Palestinian during clashes in the occupied West Bank Wednesday, the Palestinian health ministry said, as US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was visiting Israel.
The health ministry announced that Zaid Qaysia was "killed by a live bullet in the head fired by the Israeli soldiers in Al-Fawar camp" near Hebron in the southern West Bank, with a further four Palestinians injured during clashes.
The Israeli army said it was checking the reports.
Pompeo arrived in Israel Wednesday for talks on regional security and the country's plans to annex parts of the West Bank.
The talks were also expected to cover Iran after Israel is believed to have launched strikes against Iranian bases in neighboring Syria in recent weeks.
