Israeli troops shot dead an eight-year-old Palestinian boy in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, witnesses said. They said the boy died after he was hit in the head and arm by live bullets from an Israeli tank during an army raid in Khan Yunis refugee camp.  

 

Earlier, Israeli soldiers shot and wounded two children in the northern Gaza Strip city of Beit Lahya, medical sources said. 

 

They told WAFA that an Israeli tank, stationed before al-Nada neighbourhood, opened random fire at Palestinian houses, wounding two children, of whom one was in critical condition. (Albawaba.com)
