A Palestinian woman has lost her unborn baby after she was shot by Israeli troops in the occupied West Bank.



Residents of al-Ein Beit Alma refugee camp in the town of Nablus said Israeli soldiers shot and wounded Maha Katoumi, 30.

Ayman Mohyeldin, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Ramallah, said the murder took place after Israeli military vehicles entered the refugee camp in the early hours of Thursday.

The woman's husband, holding a box containing the baby's body, told reporters that when the shooting started, his wife went to fetch their other children from another room.



\"As she stood up, the bullets entered her body, she flew from the bed to the bathroom,\" he said.



Doctors at a local hospital said Katoumi, in her eighth month of pregnancy, lost the baby.
