Occupied Jerusalem - Israeli occupation forces on Tuesday murdered at least two Palestinian civilians, a teen-ager and farmer, hospital sources said.
The sources said Israeli troops riding armored personnel carriers in Nablus shot and killed a Palestinian boy who reportedly was throwing stones toward the military vehicles.
Three other boys were wounded by gunfire during the occupation army's rampage in the northern West Bank town which lasted until the mid morning hours.
In the Gaza Strip, Zionist troops killed a farmer who was working in his farm north of Gaza.
Palestinian sources said the Zionist army fired an artillery shell at Muhammed Farra, 45, who was farming in Abassan east of Khan Younis.
The Israeli army said it was firing randomly on Palestinian civilian neighborhood because of heavy fog in the area.
Israeli routinely target Palestinian civilian areas, killing and maiming many innocent people.
However, Israeli spokesmen, when speaking to foreign media, deny vehemently that their troops target Palestinian civilians.
During the past five years, especially since the outbreak of the Palestinian intifada in Sept. 2000, the Israeli army murdered or killed more than 4000 Palestinians the vast bulk of whom are believed to be innocent civilians.
