RAMALLAH, Sept 16 (KUNA) -- Three men, two Palestinians and a single Jordanian, were shot dead and one Palestinian woman suffered injuries with Israeli troops' gunfire in the occupied territories on Friday.
Palestinian sources said a Palestinian man received fatal shots and a woman was wounded with the Israelis' gunfire near Keryat Arbaa close to Al-Khalil (Hebron), but provided no further details about this particular incident.
In Tal-Rmaidah, in Hebron, one young Palestinian man was shot and seriously wounded by the Israeli forces. Witnesses said he bled to death at the scene as the Israelis prevented medics from reaching the victim promptly.
Meanwhile, Israeli police said a Jordanian was shot dead in Jerusalem when he attempted to stab Israeli soldiers.
Stab-and-run attacks targeting the Israelis have recently stepped up in the occupied territories. (end)
