Watch: Palestinians clash with Israel soldiers at Hebron funerals

Hebron - Palestinians buried five teenagers killed in a wave of attacks and clashes with Israeli forces.

Violence broke out on Saturday in the flashpoint West Bank city of Hebron as Palestinians buried five teenagers killed in a wave of attacks and clashes with Israeli forces.
The funerals came as Israeli border guards shot dead a Palestinian at a checkpoint between the West Bank and Israel after he allegedly tried to stab one of them, police said.
The surge of unrest since early October has triggered fears of a third Palestinian intifada, or uprising, against Israeli occupation by a generation gripped by despair and anger over stalled peace efforts.
Nine Israelis, 66 Palestinians and an Arab Israeli have been killed since the violence erupted in Jerusalem a month ago.
The violence has spread to the West Bank, with daily protests and attacks on Israeli soldiers, and to the Gaza Strip, where there have been clashes with Israeli forces along the borders of the coastal enclave.

Thousands of Palestinian mourners attended the funerals of the five teenagers, two of whom were girls, in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, a powder-keg in the decades-old Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
They waved Palestinian flags and chanted "we will die but Palestine will live on".
Clashes broke out between Palestinian stone throwers and Israeli soldiers as the funerals began.
Palestinian medical sources said 12 Palestinians were wounded by Israeli fire.
One Palestinian was buried separately in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.
Israel has been withholding the bodies of suspected assailants as part of measures to dissuade attacks on Jews. On Friday, it said it had released seven bodies, apparently to ease tensions.
Families of children killed in the violence have clamoured for their bodies to be released and accuse authorities of "collective punishment".
Ziad Natsheh, who buried his son Tareq, 17, said as he received condolences from mourners on Saturday that he was relieved to give him a "dignified burial".
"Living in a country where there is nothing else but war, everyone expects to know death, injury or lose a child," said Natsheh.
Many attackers who have targeted Israeli forces come from Hebron, a stronghold of Hamas.
Hebron, home to a shrine known to Jews as Cave of the Patriarchs and to Muslims as the Ibrahimi Mosque, has 200,000 Palestinian residents.
But the presence of 500 Israeli settlers near the city centre, living behind barbed wire and watchtowers, with an army-patrolled buffer zone, has kept tensions high.
On Friday, dozens of protesters outside the shrine condemned restrictions on access imposed by Israel, which has divided it into a mosque and a synagogue.
Media reported that more army checkpoints were being set up in Hebron at access points to Jewish areas, with Palestinians aged 15 to 25 not allowed to pass.
Amnesty International has urged Israeli authorities to protect Palestinians in Hebron "from attacks by Israeli settlers", which the rights group says have "escalated" in less than a month.
Hundreds of Palestinians also attended the funeral of another victim of the West Bank violence, eight-month-old Ramadan Thawabteh. Officials said he was asphyxiated by tear gas fired by Israeli soldiers near his Bethlehem home Friday.
On Friday, the Palestinians urged the International Criminal Court to accelerate its probe into accusations of "Israeli war crimes", handing over a 52-page dossier alleging summary killings and collective punishment.
