Clashes broke out on May 28, in a West Bank refugee camp as Israeli forces sought a suspect in the killing of a soldier, with the Palestinian Health Ministry in Ramallah saying 13 people were lightly wounded.
Residents of the al-Am’ari camp, located in the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate, threw stones at Israeli troops who are searching for the suspect. Israeli forces used riot dispersal measures in response.
The incident after Staff Sgt. Ronen Lubarsky, a 20-year-old soldier from the Israeli military’s elite Duvdevan unit, was laid to rest. He died from injuries sustained during a raid at the refugee camp, during which Palestinians dropped a heavy stone slab on his head from the third floor of a building.
The military said the raid, which targeted members of a cell involved in recent terrorist attacks and shootings against Israelis, took place after intelligence information indicated the wanted men intended on carrying out another attack soon.
