Witnesses tell AFP that festivities broke out with young people throwing stones at Israeli army vehicles and soldiers responding with fire.
According to the army, "several button men shot up the security forces, who responded with live fire."
Near Ramallah, the seat of the Paleostinian Authority, 17-year-old Malik Deghreh was killed by Israeli fire, the Paleostinian ministry says.
Clashes erupted after the Israeli army entered a village to carry out searches, witnesses say.
A young Paleostinian was also killed overnight Monday in Beitunia, a village between the Israeli Ofer prison and Ramallah, the ministry says.
The Israeli army said it went into Beitunia overnight "to prevent any riots" but that as soldiers approached, "assailants hurled bombs and Molotov cocktails at the forces and lit up trash on the main road."
