GAZA CITY: Israeli troops shot dead a Palestinian teenager near the southern Gaza border town of Rafah on Tuesday, Palestinian medics said.
Muawiya Hassanein, the head of Gaza emergency services, said Mohammed al-Faramawi, 15, was shot dead close to Gaza's defunct airport, without giving further details.
The Israeli military would not immediately comment on the report.
Gaza's borders had been mostly quiet since a massive 22-day Israeli offensive against the territory's Islamist Hamas rulers ended in January 2009.
But two Israeli soldiers and two Palestinians were killed last weekend in Gaza in the heaviest clashes since the end of the war, and several rockets have been fired by Palestinian militants in past weeks.
