A Palestinian man was killed and six were wounded in clashes with Israeli forces in a village near Hebron in the West Bank on Friday, Palestinian medical sources said.
According to the Palestinians, 27-year-old Ziyyad Awad was killed by live fire. However, the Israeli military said no live fire was used, but only gas canisters and rubebr-coated bullets.
According to the Israeli military, about 700 Palestinians clashed with security forces following a funeral for a man who died from medical complications shortly after his release from Israeli prison. The Palestinians threw stones and firebombs at the forces, which responded with gas canisters.
According to the Golani Brigade unit on the scene, four Palestinians were wounded by rubber-coated bullets of the Ruger type, targeting their legs.
The Israeli military is currently investigating the Palestinian reports about the fatality.  
According to the Palestinians, Ziyyad Awad was a relative of the recently diseased Jafar Awad, 22, for whom the funeral which preceded the clashes was held.
Jafar Awad's family accuse Israel of his death, saying his medical condition deteriorated in prison due to neglect, and was released with very severe pneumonia. He has been hospitalized since he was released, and died on Thursday. 
According to the Palestinian Prisoners' Club, Awad was arrested in November 2013 for an alleged membership in the Islamic Jihad, and was released three months ago due to his medical condition.
