A Palestinian youth died on Saturday succumbing to wounds sustained in clashes with Israeli forces near the Attara checkpoint north of the West Bank city of Ramallah, Palestinian medical sources said.

With the death of 17-year-old Laith Fadil Al Khalidi, the number of Palestinians who were killed in the past 24 hours rise to three.

Clashes erupted in the West Bank on Friday following the death of an 18-month-old child in a suspected Jewish arson attack on a Palestinian village.
