Palestinian officials say Israeli troops have killed a 7-month-old Palestinian baby in the occupied West Bank as violence surges there. Soldiers fired at the family's vehicle south of Hebron on Friday evening. The baby's father was shot in the hand. The mother also was wounded. The Israeli military said they fired at a vehicle perceived to be accelerating toward them. The father has demanded justice and rejecting the notion of a mistake. Israeli soldiers accused of harming Palestinians are rarely penalized. An Israeli strike in Gaza killed at least seven people including two women and a girl.
