RAMALLAH, June 2 (Xinhua) -- A Palestinian man was killed on Thursday during clashes with Israeli soldiers in the Al-Dheisheh refugee camp adjacent to the West Bank city of Bethlehem, medics and eyewitnesses said.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health said that Ayman Muheisen, 29, died in a Palestinian hospital after Israeli soldiers shot him during clashes in the refugee camp.

The ministry said two other men were injured.

There has been no immediate response from the Israeli army to the incident.

Israeli army forces stormed the refugee camp on Thursday morning, Palestinian eyewitnesses said, adding that clashes broke out between dozens of young men and Israeli soldiers.

On Wednesday, two Palestinians, including a 29-year-old woman, were killed by Israeli soldiers near the West Bank cities of Jenin and Hebron.

Over the past few weeks, tensions have flared up between Israel and the Palestinians in the West Bank. Palestinian leaders have accused Israel of escalating violence against the Palestinians and called on the international community to intervene.
