Palestinians say child seriously wounded in IDF raid in Nablus
By The Associated Press and Haaretz Service

Israel Defense Forces troops seriously wounded an 8-year-old Palestinian boy during a military operation early Tuesday, Palestinian hospital officials said.

IDF said troops operating in the area encountered rioters throwing rocks and fired rubber-coated bullets in response.

The Palestinian officials said soldiers fired rubber bullets at a group of schoolchildren who were throwing rocks at them. The boy, Marwan Aklik, was hit in the head by a rubber bullet, the officials said.

Residents said a Hamas militant was arrested by the troops.

The IDF was investigating the report of the wounded boy.

Soldiers operating in the West Bank arrested 14 wanted militants overnight.
