Israeli soldiers wounded four Palestinian demonstrators during clashes Saturday in the West Bank town of Hebron. The protesters were marking what they describe as the “catastrophe” of Israel’s founding 51 years ago. In another incident Saturday near the West Bank town of Nablus, Palestinians protested a move by Jewish settlers, who had brought in mobile homes to establish a yeshiva in the area. No arrests or injuries were reported.
