OHCHR reports death toll after Israeli military’s shooting of 11-year-old Abdullah Jamal Hawash in Nablus.
The United Nations says that Israeli forces have killed 165 children in the occupied West Bank over the past year.
The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) reported on Wednesday that the Israeli military had killed 36 children in air strikes and 129 with live ammunition, “most in the head or upper body”.
Israeli soldiers shot Abdullah Jamal Hawash, 11, in the chest on Tuesday for throwing stones at an armoured vehicle in Nablus, as reported by the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the West Bank.
In videos posted by local media, the boy was seen throwing a stone at an armoured Israeli four-wheel drive in the distance before he was shot, falling to the ground.
Hawash posed “no realistic threat” to Israeli forces, said OHCHR’s office in the occupied Palestinian territory.
