STORYLINE:
Israeli troops shot and killed a Palestinian teenager and wounded a second person during an early morning raid in the West Bank city of Nablus on Friday, Palestinians said.
Palestinian witnesses said 15-year-old Amer Basiouny was shot when he went up on the roof of his family's home in the Ein Beit Ilma refugee camp.
They said he had been trying to see what was going on after gunfire erupted in his neighbourhood during the pre-dawn Israeli raid.
The Israeli army said their troops in the camp shot an armed man and a second person who threw an object, which they believed was a bomb, at the soldiers during the raid.
Residents said Basiouny was not armed.
A second person was lightly wounded by shrapnel that flew into his house, the said. There were no reports of a second person being shot, they said.
Later on Friday a few hundred Palestinians took part in the funeral of the 15-year-old.
They marched through the streets of Nablus carrying the body and chanting slogans.
Israel began a series of raids against Palestinian cities in the northern West Bank after the Islamic Hamas group won the January 25 Palestinian parliamentary elections.
