GAZA, November 13 (RIA Novosti) - Israeli soldiers have killed a Palestinian teenager and arrested three others on Friday at a Gaza Strip crossing, ambulance medics have reported.
An Israeli spokesman said soldiers opened fire, suspecting the Palestinians in a bombing attempt.
Palestinian media say that those arrested may also be injured. According to local residents, Israel opens fire at anyone who approaches border guards closer than 300 meters.
The Gaza Strip has been the subject of an almost continuous Israeli blockade since radical Islamic group Hamas took control of the enclave in the summer of 2007, and an Israeli air and ground offensive at the turn of the year killed some 1,400 Palestinians, including hundreds of civilians.
