Israeli troops demolished the home of a Palestinian accused of the May killing of a soldier on Saturday, completing a night-long incursion into the Palestinian-controlled city of Ramallah.
The raid on the West Bank city where Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas has his headquarters comes as Israeli forces search for the perpetrator of a Thursday shooting that killed two Israeli soldiers.
The incursion late Friday triggered clashes with angry residents following a week of rising tensions.

Hamid killed Staff Sgt. Ronen Lubarsky by dropping a marble slab on his head during an IDF raid in May at the al-Am’ari refugee camp in Ramallah.
Both army and border police units took part in the Friday operation including members of the commando unit in which the soldier was serving when he was killed.
Several hundred soldiers entered the city's Al-Amari refugee camp late Friday, leaving on Saturday morning, AFP journalists reported.
'During the operation, dozens of Palestinians instigated a number of violent riots. The rioters hurled rocks towards the forces, who responded with riot dispersal means,' the army said.
Inside the camp, soldiers demolished the home of Islam Abu Hamid, who was arrested in June for the soldier's killing.

The family house was completely destroyed in a controlled explosion, AFP correspondents at the scene said.
Neighbours said several hundred residents, including children, were ordered out of their homes and kept in a sports field in the cold of night while the army operation continued.
'The weather was very cold. A lot of the elderly, the children and the women were ill,' said Samir al-Tukhi, one of those kept outside.
It is the third time the house has been destroyed, with several of Abu Hamid's brothers also jailed by Israel on terrorism charges, while one was killed.
Their mother, Latifa, told AFP the demolition didn't matter to her.
'The first time we rebuilt it, the second time we also rebuilt it. One hundred or one thousand times we will rebuild and they demolish it.'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has faced pressure from right-wing rivals and Jewish settlers for a strong response to the killing of the soldiers on Thursday
Israel regularly demolishes the homes of Palestinians who carry out attacks against Israelis.
It argues it is a deterrent though critics say it amounts to collective punishment.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has faced pressure from right-wing rivals and Jewish settlers for a strong response to the killing of the soldiers on Thursday.
It was the third deadly attack by Palestinian gunmen in the West Bank in two months and set off demonstrations by settler groups on whose support Netanyahu's government depends.
The incursion late Friday triggered clashes with angry residents following a week of rising tensions
In clashes on Friday, Mahmoud Nakhla, 17, was killed by Israeli fire near the Jalazone refugee camp outside Ramallah, the Palestinian health ministry said.
The army said on Saturday that an 'initial investigation' showed that a soldier opened fire when a Palestinian came toward him in what was seen as a potentially threatening way.
'Palestinians instigated a violent riot adjacent to Jalazone,' a military spokesman told AFP, adding that troops were pelted with rocks.
'During the riot a Palestinian approached a soldier carrying a suspicious object,' he said.
'In response the soldier fired toward the Palestinian. He was then treated at the scene by troops before being evacuated by a Palestinian ambulance.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
