ISRAELI soldiers killed a Palestinian man and wounded three others during a night raid on a refugee camp in the occupied West Bank early this morning. 

The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed Mohammed Edwan, a 23-year-old man and resident of the Qalandiya refugee camp just south of Ramallah, to be the victim. 

“The victim was shot more than 10 times by the forces, who left him to bleed to death,” the ministry said.
