New wick in Middle East: Israeli soldiers kill Palestinian protester

A truce may have been in place for a week Israel and Palestine, ending an intense period of 11 days, which cost the lives of many people, but once again the… thread that keeps the Middle East in balance has proved to be very thin.

Israeli soldiers opened fire and killed a Palestinian during clashes in the West Bank today (28/05), according to the Ministry of Health of the Palestinian Authority.

Several hundred Palestinians had gathered near Nablus, in the North West Bank, in a mobilization of protest against Israeli settlement.

Some of the protesters, who had their faces covered with masks, hurled stones at the soldiers and set fire to tires, eyewitnesses said. Israeli soldiers shot and killed a man.

According to the Athenian-Macedonian News Agency, a representative of the Israeli Army said that the authorities are examining this information.

The spirits remain sharp in the area, despite the truce they agreed on last week the government of Israel and Hamas.
