Israeli police killed a young Palestinian girl in a car at a West Bank crossing when they opened fire on another car suspected of a ramming attack, Israeli emergency services said, according to Reuters.

The border police said they hit the girl after firing at a couple in a car who they said rammed into two Israelis at a crossing in the occupied West Bank just outside Jerusalem.

Israeli paramedics gave her age as three but Palestinian sources told the Wafa official Palestinian news agency that the girl was four.
