Israeli occupation forces killed three more Palestinians yesterday,
including a 16-year-old boy, as US Vice-President Joe Biden attacked the
Palestinian Authority for "failing to condemn" violence.

 

Teenager Ahmad Yousef Amer was gunned down by soldiers after allegedly
attempting a stabbing attack at a military checkpoint outside the blockaded
village of al-Zawiya in Salfit district yesterday morning.

 

Another resident was shot and wounded in the incident.

 

Local official Naim Shqeir told the Ma'an news agency that two Palestinians
had been shot during the incident and "left bleeding" when ambulance crews
were denied access.

 

Israeli police later shot dead two Palestinian gunmen who opened fire in
Jerusalem's Old City.

 

Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said that the pair initially opened fire on
an Israeli bus in the illegal settlement of Ramot, before fleeing the scene
without causing any injuries.

 

US man killed

 

On Tuesday, US student and military officer Taylor Force, who fought in Iraq
and Afghanistan, was stabbed to death in the seaside resort of Jaffa.

 

On the Israeli leg of his Middle East tour, Mr Biden criticised Palestinian
President Mahmoud Abbas for not condemning the murder at a joint press
conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

 

A brief statement on the Twitter account of Mr Abbas's Fatah party declared:
"This is the result so long as Israel does not believe in the two-state
solution and ending its occupation."

 

It also described the attacker, who was also killed, as a "hero" and a
"martyr."
