A third Palestinian was killed by Israeli fire today, the health ministry in Ramallah said, after a man was shot dead in clashes northeast of Jerusalem.

The Palestinian ministry said Bassel Ibrahim, 24, was shot dead by Israeli forces in Anata, a town between the West Bank and Jerusalem, in protests against Washington's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

Earlier, two Palestinians died in clashes along the Gaza border, with seven killed in total since Trump's shock announcement last week.
