JERUSALEM (AP) — The Palestinian Health Ministry says a Palestinian man died after he was shot by Israeli troops near a military checkpoint in the occupied West Bank and a teenager with a knife was shot by an Israeli civilian inside a Jewish settlement. In Jerusalem, police say a Palestinian stabbed and wounded a policeman outside Jerusalem’s Old City. Police shot the assailant, but did not provide details on his condition. Sunday’s incidents were the latest violent episodes in recent weeks. This has included deadly attacks inside Israel, an Israeli military crackdown in the West Bank, and clashes between Israeli police and Palestinians at a major holy site in Jerusalem sacred to Jews and Muslims.
