Israeli Troops Kill Palestinian Militant in West Bank
The incident followed weekend violence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip in which at least four Palestinians and one Israeli were killed, underlining difficulties facing the United States as it tries to end almost two years of bloodshed.

Ghasal Israhat, a militant wanted by Israel, was killed by Israeli troops during a raid on the village of al-Yamoun near the West Bank city of Jenin, his family said.

Israhat's family said they were asleep in their beds when soldiers burst into the house overnight and detained Israhat. Shortly afterwards they said they heard gunshots and that the soldiers later told them they had killed the militant.
