Israeli forces kill 14-year-old boy in West Bank, rights group says

A Palestinian teenager was among those killed during Israeli raids across the occupied West Bank, according to Defense for Children International Palestine.

The group reported that 14-year-old Ahmad Rashid Rushdi Jazar was shot from a long distance, and Israeli soldiers then fired at those attempting to help him.

“Israeli forces shot and killed Ahmad Rashid Rushdi Jazar, 14, near the Sebastia kindergarten in the northern occupied West Bank on Sunday,” the organisation stated. “Soldiers shot Ahmad from more than 2,000 feet away, then fired toward his friends who tried to help him.”
