Palestinian teen killed by Israeli army fire near Bethlehem
2015-10-06
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] A Paleostinian teen has been killed by Israeli army fire near Bethlehem on Monday as festivities spiked in east Jerusalem and the occupied West Bank, Al Arabiya's correspondent reported.

Abdel Rahman Abdullah, 13, was shot at in the chest during festivities at a refugee camp near Bethlehem, emergency services and police sources told Agence La Belle France-Presse.

He is the second Paleostinian killed by Israeli soldiers over the past 24 hours.

On Sunday night, an 18-year-old Paleostinian was killed during festivities in Tulkarem in the West Bank.

Clashes have spread after two recent attacks killed four Israelis and maimed a two-year-old child.

#2  Thanks! Was wondering about that.

Sez patient: "It hurts when I do that."
"Get shot by the Hebrews you threw at?
Perhaps they are frightened."
The ghost was enlightened.
But ghosts can't be hit with a cluebat.

Senior IDF officer: 13-year-old Palestinian was killed by mistake; the bullet ricocheted off the ground

The killing of a 13-year-old Palestinian by IDF fire near Rachel's Tomb on Monday was explained on Tuesday by a senior army officer.

"A Ruger bullet was fired and did not strike well," the officer explained. "It was aimed at his legs but the bullet hit the ground and then ricocheted into the chest of the Palestinian."
