Ammon News - A 15-year-old Palestinian boy was killed on Tuesday by Israeli forces during a raid of a refugee camp near Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank that sparked clashes with local youths.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said in a statement that the occupation soldiers stormed homes in Dheisheh refugee camp using rubber-coated live bullets, tear gas and stun grenades against local people who confronted them, leaving a boy injured in his chest.

The medical crew transferred the injured to the Beit Jala Public Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, the PRCS added.
