Hebron activists challenge IDF narrative on shooting – Shlomi Eldar – Al-Monitor 25.09.15
Hebron residents who documented the incident in which a young Palestinian woman was shot by an IDF soldier in Hebron contradict the IDF's story.                                                                                                                      Read full report here

And see: No justification for multiple bullets that killed Hadil al-Hashlamun in Hebron – press release on 24.09.15 by B'Tselem, The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories.
The circumstances of the incident indicate that the soldiers at the checkpoint acted disproportionately…The claim that al-Hashlamun tried to stab soldiers, repeated by the media, cannot be reconciled with the fact that there was a metal barrier between her and the soldiers at the time of the shooting. Furthermore, the soldier who opened fire continued shooting after she had been hit in the legs and no longer posed a danger.
