Israeli troops killed a Palestinian gunman who attacked a military unit conducting searches in the occupied West Bank today.
Witnesses said the gunman, from al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, was shot in Balata, a refugee camp near the Palestinian-ruled city of Nablus.
Two other members of al-Aqsa, an armed wing of President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction, were wounded.
The Israeli army said they sustained no casualties.
Al-Aqsa is among factions spearheading a six-year-old Palestinian revolt.
