Israeli security forces detained 11 Palestinians from the West Bank for questioning about suspected involvement in the murder of Jewish settler Dov Dribben earlier this week. Palestinians said some 38 residents of a village near the Wes??? Bank town of Hebron have been detained since Sunday’s clash in which Dribben was killed. Two Israelis and one Palestinian were wounded in the violence, which was triggered by a long-standing dispute between Jewish settlers and Palestinian shepherds in the area over land use.
