Israeli Forces Kill 3 Palestinians in West Bank; Israel's Top Court Suspends Sheikh Jarrah Expulsions
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the occupied West Bank, three Palestinians were killed by Israeli
forces in two separate attacks Tuesday. The youngest reported death was
18-year-old Shadi Khaled Najm.

In other news from the region, Israel's Supreme Court has suspended, for
now, the expulsion of four Palestinian families from their homes in the
occupied East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah. Israeli settlers
were attempting to seize their land, but the dispute will now have to
undergo a legal process that could take years or not be completed at
all. Palestinian families have been resisting the dispossession of their
homes in Sheikh Jarrah for generations.
