Israeli settler 'kills Palestinian teenager' with a bullet in his back
A Palestinian teenager has been shot dead by an Israeli settler in the occupied West Bank, witnesses and activists said. The settler opened fire after Palestinian youths threw stones at his car travelling along Route 60 in Mazra'a al-Sharqia, east of Ramallah. The Popular Struggle Co-ordination Committee activist group said that Aysar al-Zaben was not involved in the stone throwing, but was tending his family's land when he was shot. "According to his uncle, his lifeless body was found lying face down on the ground with a bullet hole in his back," the group said in a statement.
