The unnamed solider can be seen in a tense stand-off with the veiled young woman, thought to be Hadeel al-Hashlamon, an 18-year-old Palestinian student. The confrontation, which involved at least one other soldier (top right), came in Hebron on the West Bank Tuesday after, where tensions have been at fever-point for days as major religious festivals in both the Jewish and Muslim calendars approach. Moments after the image was photographed, al-Hashlamon was shot. Family members were later pictured (bottom right) grieving over her dead body, which was rolled through the streets as her relatives mourned. The killing came after Israeli authorities banned young Muslim men from the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam's third-holiest site, and implemented a travel ban over the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.
Bamboozled by Boris the mischief maker: Explosive biography tells how London mayor grabbed an extra £93MILLION of public money from Cameron and Osborne after threat to overshadow Tory conference
Lord Ashcroft's biography of the Prime Minister also claims that he made his old Eton and Oxford adversary Boris Johnson (left, with wife Marina Wheeler) his last choice to be Tory candidate for London Mayor. David Cameron dismissed Mr Johnson (right, together) as having 'totally the wrong profile' and was so desperate to find an alternative that he even approached the Left-wing luvvie Greg Dyke, who he invited to run on a joint Tory/Lib Dem ticket. When Mr Johnson found out what the PM had said, he jokingly labelled Mr Cameron a 'f*****'. Later, he mischievously threatened to overshadow a major Tory event unless given tens of millions of pounds that helped boost his political career in the capital.

Dave: I was born with TWO silver spoons in my mouth. Parents at his prep school included: 8 Honourables, 4 Sirs, 2 Princesses, 2 Marchionesses, 1 Viscount, 1 Earl, 1 Lord... and Her Majesty The Queen!
David Cameron enjoyed a privileged upbringing during his time at exclusive prep school Heatherdown, near Ascot in Berkshire (pictured left aged 10 reading from the lectern at school), where fellow pupils were the children of billionaires and the wealthy elite. During his childhood, the future Prime Minister (right) enjoyed lavish birthday parties including one particular trip where he held a glass of Dom Pérignon '69 while flying on a Concorde, aged 11. The trip was part of an all-expenses-paid jaunt to celebrate the birthday of his classmate, Peter Getty -grandson of oil billionaire John Paul Getty. The boys spent four days in Washington DC, sightseeing by air-conditioned convertible and dining in fine restaurants, before flying on to New York, where they explored the Empire State Building and World Trade Centre.

MIGRANT CRISIS IN EUROPE
Diplomats warn of 'blood on the walls' after EU leaders stitch up deal to force Eastern European countries to take their share of 160,000 refugees
Eastern European countries have been told they will have to welcome thousands of refugees to relocate 160,000 people from Greece and Italy after they were out-voted at a Brussels summit. Diplomats warned the decision to over-rule the autonomy of countries on such a sensitive issue was a 'big moment' in the history of the union and could lead to 'blood on the walls'. The Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania and Hungary tried to block the plan but their vehement opposition was over-ridden after it was decided to use a majority vote at the meeting of interior ministers rather than consensus. Britain is able to refuse to take part in the quota system to distribute refugees already in Europe as it has an opt-out, along with Denmark.
My husband was given a one-way ticket to hell: Wife of Marine killed serving with Sergeant Blackman backs Mail's campaign
Hugged by his daughters and cradling his baby girl, this is Sergeant Barry Weston on his final visit home (left) before he was killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan. Yesterday, his proud widow Joanne shared the picture - together with another taken on the infamous 'tour from hell' (right) - to show her unequivocal support for the campaign for justice for his comrade, jailed Royal Marine Sergeant Alexander Blackman (centre). The haunting final warzone photograph shows Sgt Weston slumped against the wall of an Afghan hut with a faraway look in his eyes. Days later he was blown up leading a patrol against Taliban fighters. Sgt Weston and Sgt Blackman were both fighting on the front line during the disastrous 2011 tour of Helmand Province, enduring daily Taliban attacks while isolated, let down by the chain of command, under-manned and under-resourced.

Girl, 14, is victim of horrific bullying attack which is videoed and put on Facebook - but SHE is the one forced to switch schools
Kia Young, 14 (left), was grabbed and pushed to the ground by a 15-year-old girl (right) in front of a baying crowd while another girl filmed the incident in Leek, Staffordshire, on a mobile phone. Shocking footage of the attack, which left Kia with back pain, scratches and ripped clothes, was later uploaded to social media and shared hundreds of times. The teenager, who has known her attacker since primary school, has now revealed she has been forced to change schools because she fears further threats and bullying. She had only joined the Staffordshire school six weeks before the incident occurred in May this year, having moved from another establishment due to bullying. She said the incident occurred on May 11, after she received several abusive messages on Facebook from a group of girls the evening prior to the attack. Her attacker was suspended from school for three days and given a police caution but Kia feels she got off lightly and 'would have been arrested' if it had happened in a town centre.
'I've done something really f****** bad': Police hunt 'dangerous' brothers who posted chilling Facebook status just hours after corrosive attack outside restaurant leaves woman with horrific burns
Geoffrey Midmore (pictured, left) took to the social network in the early hours of the morning on Saturday - not long after a 37-year-old's face 'melted' in a brutal street acid attack in Southampton. He posted one status saying he'd 'done something really f******bad' and another saying 'What have I done' (inset). The 26-year-old and his brother Billy Midmore, 22, (right) are being hunted by police in connection with the Friday night attack, which happened in Southampton. Witnesses say they saw the victim's face 'melt' after she was hit with the liquid.
Westminster Abbey reveals more secrets: Skeletons of up to 50 people buried in the 11th century are found beneath drainage pipes after toilet block is knocked down to make way for new viewing gallery
Experts hope the find, which included the skeleton of a three-year-old child, will shed more light on the tumultuous events of 1066 in London's Westminster Abbey (inset), when one king was buried and two crowned. Among the other bones found just outside the wall of Poets' Corner were skulls punctured with holes (bottom right) left by the pickaxes of 13th century workmen. They were stacked up into dense piles and placed under the drainage pipes (left) more than 500 years earlier during the building of the great new abbey, now an Unesco World Heritage Site, which cost Henry III the then huge sum of £45,000. It brings the number of individuals known to have been laid to rest in the abbey to 3,350, but more bones are expected to resurface as the last of the toilet block is removed to make space for a new £19million Gothic tower, which will eventually bring visitors up into the attics of the building.
'We've totally screwed up': Volkswagen's U.S. boss admits company fixed diesel tests as hundreds of thousands of UK motorists face having their cars recalled
VW said yesterday that 11million of its diesel vehicles had been programmed to cheat emissions tests - with the company's US boss Mike Horn(left) admitting: 'We have totally screwed up.' Experts believe vehicles caught up in the scandal will need to be recalled and modified to ensure they meet legal targets, potentially affecting hundreds of thousands of UK cars. VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn(top right) offered his 'deepest' apologies yesterday and said he was 'utterly sorry', as the company's share price dropped by another 20 per cent.

THE WORLD AT A GLANCE
The Pontiff and the President: Pope Francis arrives in America for the first time ever to a greeting from the first family... then leaves in a VERY tiny unassuming Fiat 500 to start his 5-day tour
Pope Francis was greeted by President Obama and the First Family as he landed in Washington on Tuesday for his first visit to the United States. It signals the start of a five-day tour across D.C., New York and Philadelphia for the 78-year-old Roman Catholic leader, coinciding with the United Nations summit which will see more than 100 world leaders arrive in New York. In a rare move, the president was on the tarmac with his wife Michelle, their daughters Malia and Sasha, and Michelle's mother Marian Robinson to meet the pontiff at Joint Base Andrews at 4pm (Eastern Time).
