 HEBRON, West Bank (Reuters) - Jewish criminals shot dead a Palestinian little girl during a rampage in the West Bank city of Hebron on Sunday after the funeral of an Israeli soldier killed in a roadside ambush, witnesses said. Medical sources said nine Palestinians were wounded by gunfire from a jewish mob. The violence flared as the United States said it planned talks with Palestinian officials on security reforms and Israel pledged to ease the occupation on Palestinians in the West Bank. Witnesses said a mob of about 100 jews attacked Palestinian houses in the old city and eastern Hebron, setting fires, breaking doors and windows and firing at houses. The dead girl, Neveen Jamjoum, was shot while sitting just inside the doorway of her house, her mother said. Hospital officials said she was eight years old. There was shooting, and scuffles between police and settlers, but we are still investigating," the spokesman said. The meetings Secretary of State Colin Powell will hold were expected to be the most senior U.S. contacts with the Palestinian Authority since President Bush called last month for Yasser Arafat to be sidelined as Palestinian leader. "Last week I met with an Israeli delegation. This is part of the process of moving forward to help the Palestinian community transform itself," said Powell, on an Asian tour. He said the meeting would be held early next month after he returns home.
