Palestinian shot dead by IDF in checkpoint incident
The Israeli military and the Palestinian Authority reported the incident differently, as is often the case.
Israeli forces shot a Palestinian driver in the West Bank on Tuesday. Israeli and Palestinian authorities offered differing accounts of what happened.
The Israel Defense Forces said a vehicular attack was thwarted against a checkpoint manned by soldiers south of the Palestinian capital Ramallah. The soldiers opened fire on the vehicle and no soldiers were injured in the overnight incident, the IDF said in a Tuesday tweet.
