A Palestinian prisoner in a Negev desert jail for Arab security prisoners killed two inmates, the army said, and police suggested that the victims may have been suspected of collaborating with Israeli authorities.

In the occupied lands, troops wounded at least 29 Palestinians, including four 11-year-olds, when they opened fire on stone throwers.
