Story:

Israeli troops killed a Palestinian at the entrance to a shrine in Hebron on Wednesday (May 6), a military spokesman said.
He said the Palestinian had raised the suspicions of paramilitary Border Police officers guarding the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, a flashpoint city in the occupied West Bank, by trying to avoid a security checkpoint at the entrance.
Asked if the Palestinian had been armed, the military spokesman said he did not yet know. There was no immediate comment on the incident from armed Palestinian factions, which have kept a relatively low profile in the West Bank as Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas pursues a security drive.
Most recent Israeli-Palestinian violence has taken place in the Gaza Strip, which is ruled by Abbas's Islamist Hamas rivals.
Palestinians at the Cave, a biblical site holy to Muslims and Jews but which is a tinderbox of political tensions, reported hearing some 30 shots fired in Wednesday's incident.
An Israeli policeman was lightly wounded by a bullet fragment, the military spokesman said.
Hebron is the second-largest Palestinian city in the West Bank, which Israel captured along with Gaza in a 1967 war. It is also home to several hundred hardline Jewish settlers whose tiny enclave abuts the Cave and is closely guarded by Israeli forces.
