Palestine-Israel, Politics, 11/7/2001

One Israeli army officer was killed in the attack launched by three Arab youths at an Israeli position in Salaf al-Daher village to the north of Nablus.

Confrontations were held following the operation between the Intifada youth and the Israeli forces deployed in the site which falls under the supervision of the Palestinian authority. The three Palestinians were murdered in the attack. News reports said that the Israeli forces opened fire at them in a " cold blood" as they were wounded and prevented admitting them to hospital.

Moreover, the two Palestinians Ikramah Steiti and Majdi al-Tayeb, of Fatah movement were killed after one Israeli helicopter opened fire at their car in Jenin. The attack was in the framework of the plan of Sharon's government to liquidate the Intifada activists.

Immediately the people of Jenin took the streets in a demonstration in protest of "the new crime" by the Israeli forces.

In Qarem Sa'ya and Sanjal armored Israeli settlers opened fire at the Palestinian farmers while working in olive cultivation and this resulted in wounding many Palestinians.

The Israeli forces closed the entrances of Ramullah and opened fire at the citizens who tried to get out the military barriers to leave the city.

The Israeli forces arrested four citizens from Bakeer village, Bethlehem district under the pretext of attacking the Israeli military cars and the Arab citizens retaliated the Israeli acts by opening fire at the Israeli positions in Gaza and at katieve and Ghadid settlements, a position in Rafah and a patrol while running at Carnet- Netsareim crossing.

In Ramullah an Israeli patrol was fired upon and the Palestinian youths attacked an Israeli position near Shofout Raheel settlement.
