By Emma FargeGENEVA, May 27 (Reuters) - About a third of Palestinians killed by Israel since an October truce were in areas near the military's armistice line with Hamas, raising concerns that troops may be shooting at civilians merely for approaching the area, the U.N. human rights office said.The office said such actions would constitute unlawful killings and thus war crimes.
