JERUSALEM (AP) - A top Palestinian militant leader in the West Bank was shot in the head and seriously wounded, militants and hospital officials said. Hospital officials said Hossam Jaradat, the West Bank leader of Islamic Jihad's militant wing, was shot by Israeli soldiers in the Jenin refugee camp. But Islamic Jihad said they were not sure Israel was behind the shooting.
The Israeli army said it was checking into the report.
