Israel's military says its soldiers shot and killed a Palestinian who ran toward their post in the West bank.
Circumstances of the shooting are unclear and the military said it is investigating Friday's incident.
Since September, Palestinians have killed 34 Israelis and two visiting Americans in attacks. Some 208 Palestinians died in that time, most identified as attackers by Israel.
Israel blames the violence on a campaign of incitement by Palestinian political and religious leaders. The Palestinians say it is rooted in decades of living under military rule and fading hopes for independence.
Israeli and Palestinian rights groups say soldiers have often used excessive force to subdue attackers.
