STORYLINE:
Thousands of people took to the streets of Nablus on Tuesday to attend the funeral of an 11-year-old Palestinian boy who was killed on Monday during clashes with Israeli soldiers in the city.
The clashes followed the death of an Israeli soldier in exchanges of fire between Palestinians and the Israeli army.
The body of 11-year-old Mahmoud Zaghloul was wrapped in a Palestinian flag and carried through the streets of Nablus as mourners chanted slogans.
Meanwhile in Gaza city a 50- year-old Palestinian man was buried after being killed on Monday night by tank fire.
The man, Saleh Beahr, was a guard at a local garage. Beahr was killed after Israeli soldiers responded to militants who threw grenades at them just outside the Gaza Strip.
The Islamic Jihad, claiming responsibility for the grenade attack, said the assailants returned safely.
In Ramallah Israeli troops took up positions facing Yasser Arafat's headquarters, to keep up pressure on the Palestinian leader despite ending a siege around the compound at the beginning of the week.
By dawn, Israeli forces occupied three buildings near Arafat's headquarters, which they had abandoned on Sunday following a 10-day siege that destroyed most of the structures surrounding Arafat's office.
Troops were posted on the roof of the eight-story Palestinian Ministry of Culture building, about 500 metres (yards) from Arafat's office, and on the roof of another eight-storey building still under construction. They also occupied a nearby house.
The army had no immediate comment on the deployment. Israel had attacked Arafat's compound on September 19 following a suicide bomb attack on a bus that killed six Israelis.
