Palestinian kills teen in West Bank home, shot dead: army

A Palestinian attacker Thursday fatally stabbed a 13-year-old girl in her home in a Jewish settlement in the West Bank before being shot dead by security guards, the Israeli army said. The army said the young Palestinian killed the girl in her bed after breaking into her home in the Kiryat Arba settlement outside the flashpoint city of Hebron. The Palestinian health ministry identified the attacker as Mohammed Nasser Tarayra, 19, from the village of Bani Naim, just outside the city, in the south of the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
