The seventh was a prosecutor and lawyer, who was seriously injured by Israeli soldiers during demonstrations in support of Gaza and Jerusalem in the northern West Bank city of Nablus and died later in a nearby medical center.

Palestinian sources said clashes broke out on Friday in several towns and villages in the West Bank when Israeli soldiers fired tear gas canisters, rubber bullets and gunshots to disperse the Palestinian demonstrators.
