A Jordanian man who was trying to enter Israel through Beit She'an in the northern part of the country was shot and killed by Israeli Army troops.  

 

According to Israel Radio Sunday, initial investigations into the incident indicate the person was an unarmed civilian. Israeli police authorities are still unsure, however, if the man acted suspiciously.
