 A Palestinian man has died after being shot by Israeli troops, the first casualty following a truce announced in Sharm al-Shaikh, Egypt. A Palestinian man died late on Wednesday hours after he was wounded by gunfire from a Gaza Jewish settlement. This marks the first conflict-related fatality since Israel and the Palestinians declared a truce a day ago, medics said. The 20-year-old from a Rafah refugee camp in southern Gaza was shot from the nearby illegal settlement of Atzmona, which has an Israeli army garrison. An Israeli military source said troops had fired warning shots, suspecting an infiltration attempt. |
