"Israeli troops, backed by tanks, poured into the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank before dawn today, searching for suspects. A main target was a Hamas militant named Jamal Abu al Haija. But he was not at home and the soldiers settled for burning his house down."

"In other action, an Israeli Arab woman was killed in the West Bank when her taxicab, which had Israeli plates, was fired upon. A 7-year-old Palestinian boy, Amid Abu Seir, was shot dead and a half-dozen other Palestinians, including his father, were wounded by fire from an Israeli armored vehicle at the Askar refugee camp near Nablus, Palestinian witnesses said."
