Israeli boy 'shot dead'

An Israeli boy is reported to have been shot dead in a drive-by shooting in the West Bank.

The shooting took place near the entrance to the Jewish settlement of Givat Zeev, north of Jerusalem.

Israeli radio reported that the boy died after Palestinians driving by the car he was in opened fire on his vehicle.

Details are still coming in.

Last week a three-month old baby was one of three Palestinians shot dead in the West Bank in an attack the Israeli authorities have blamed on Israeli vigilantes.
