Israeli troops shot rubber-coated steel bullets at stone throwers in the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank on Sunday, injuring three children and a man, Palestinian medics said. The stone throwing began when Israeli jeeps entered the camp in an attempt to arrest a suspected militant, witnesses said. The troops fired in response, injuring children ages 10, 12 and 13, the medics said. The thirteen-year-old girl was shot in the eye, they said. The army confirmed that rubber-coated steel bullets were used to disperse a demonstration of stone throwers. |
