IDF: Reports about Palestinian teen killed near Bethlehem examined

The IDF said Sunday it is examining the Palestinian report according to which a 15-year-old boy was shot dead during a series of arrests in the Dheisheh refugee camp near Bethlehem.

In an extensive series of raids to arrest wanted suspects, violent riots took place including hurling Molotov cocktails, stones and improvised explosive devices at the IDF forces, as reported by the IDF.

The IDF force responded with crowd-dispersal means and live shooting at main instigators.

There were no casualties among the IDF soldiers.
