The shooting, which Israel said came during a gunbattle with local militants, came at a time of intensified Israeli military activity in the northern West Bank town of Jenin in recent months.
In a statement, the army said that soldiers opened fire after gunmen shot at them from a passing vehicle. It said the suspects also threw explosives toward the soldiers. On May 11, a veteran Palestinian journalist for the Al Jazeera satellite channel was killed while covering an Israeli military operation in the Jenin refugee camp. Shireen Abu Akleh's family, the broadcaster, the Palestinian Authority and witnesses accused Israel of shooting the correspondent for the Qatari channel. Israel says there was a fierce gunbattle at the time, and it's not clear if she was killed by Israeli or Palestinian gunfire.
Why try and blame Israel for the terrorist groups recruiting children and using them to attack Israelis? Where is the condemnation for teaching kids to hate?
When is Hamas and PLJ going to accept responsibility for the death of this young lad. They indoctrinate their children with hate and it’s nothing short of child abuse. Children should be brought up with love not hate. When is UN going to comment on this child abuse?
Don't tell me, he had a rock in his hand😡 such bullshit.
Sadly this headline is progress. Although I'd prefer 'Palestinian killed by Israelis in occupied Palestine.'
Again with the shooting of Palestinian people they are the rightful character construct of 'their land'.
People in the comments - don't run to a different country, defend your home land ( Ukrainian, Syrian, etc al..) Also people in the comments- except you Palestinians you must not fight back when Israel takes over your homes and bombs you.
I do not see you reporting on all the Israelis that have been killed and are being killed.
Judea and Samaria
The Palestinian teen was a terrorist who was attacking soldiers. Fix your headline, this is dangerous.
