Israeli troops shot and killed a Palestinian teen-ager and wounded four other demonstrators in the occupied West Bank during a strike to protest Israel’s policy of expelling Palestinians accused of inciting violence. In Nablus, the West Bank’s largest Arab city, soldiers fired on stone-throwing demonstrators, killing Ala Adin Aghbar, 18, with a bullet to the stomach and wounding two others, residents and hospital sources said. In another clash, two Palestinians were shot and slightly wounded when Israeli troops fired on protesters in Dura, near Hebron, who were demonstrating against a bus carrying West Bank laborers to Israel in violation of a strike call.
