10: HEBRON

About 120,000 Palestinians live in Hebron, which is supposed to be under autonomous Palestinian control. But in the center of town is a Jewish colony of 400 that has often sparked confrontations between Israeli soldiers and the Palestinians.

Today there is another conflict, as Dr. Musa Safi Kdemat, 50, is killed as he tries to escape gunfire between Israeli troops and Palestinians near the enclave. Another 23 are injured. The Israeli army denies Palestinian charges that their tanks entered the town, but admit that tanks had fired shells into Hebron.

Also today, soldiers fatally shoot Imad Hazahizah, a 19 year-old Palestinian as the youth is drinking tea at his farm near Tulkarem (see item 3). Three other young men are also wounded. The Israeli army provides no information as to why solders fire on the group.

An Israeli settler is killed near Ramallah (see item 4).

More houses are razed in Rafah (see item 6) and four Palestinians are wounded. There is a heated confrontation when Israeli troops threaten to open fire on a convoy from a UN relief agency. The army later apologizes.

A Palestinian policeman dies and four are injured when Israeli tanks fire into a Force 17 post in the Gaza Strip. The army says that this is retalliation for mortar fire at a nearby Jewish colony.

A 4 year-old Palestinian boy is hit by crossfire in the West Bank.

Israeli troops withdraw from Beit Jala (see previous item).

The death of Dr. Kdemat brought the nearly year-old intifada death toll to 759, including 581 Palestinians and 156 Israelis, according to the count kept by Agence France Presse.
