Israeli Soldiers Kill Settler

Israeli Soldiers Kill Settler
Israeli soldiers shot dead a settler and wounded two others when they opened fire on a car at a military roadblock in the occupied West Bank on Friday, the army said.

"Soldiers who had been warned of a suspicious vehicle opened fire, killing one Israeli and wounding two others," a military spokesperson told AFP.

The car, driving from the Beit Hagai settlement towards Al-Khalil, had failed to stop at a barrier specially erected to intercept it following an alert, the spokesperson said.

Palestinians have been the victims of similar shootings in the past, accusing Israeli occupation soldiers of opening fire without warning on vehicles they consider suspect.

The army has opened a probe into Friday's incident.
