Clashes between Palestinians and Israeli Soldiers in Jerusalem

JERUSALEM, May 9, 2011 (WAFA) – Israeli soldiers Monday clashed with Palestinians around the checkpoint near the entrance of Shuafat, a refugee camp north of the Old City.

Israeli soldiers opened fire using live and rubber bullets at Palestinians across of the camp entrance after they stoned and threw empty bottles at three Israeli vehicles attempted to enter the camp, according to witnesses.

Witnesses reported that Israeli soldiers closed the checkpoint from both ways for vehicles and pedestrians, checked their IDs, called for reinforcements and put up metal barricades to block the camp entrance.
