Stone-throwing protesters clash with Israeli soldiers in Hebron over Pence visit
Tensions spill onto the streets of the West Bank as Palestinians demonstrate against the US Vice President's trip to Jerusalem.
Palestinian protesters clashed with Israeli soldiers in the West Bank city of Hebron on Tuesday, hurling stones during confrontations that broke out following demonstrations against the visit of US Vice President Mike Pence to Jerusalem.
The unrest erupted after crowds gathered to voice their opposition to Pence's presence in the region. Soldiers moved in as the protests turned violent, prompting the stone-throwing exchanges that marked some of the most visible street-level anger since the visit began.
Hebron, one of the most politically sensitive cities in the West Bank, has long been a flashpoint for Israeli-Palestinian tensions, and the American visit appeared to inflame existing grievances among residents who took to the streets in protest.
