India Today
The shooting of a Palestinian boy occurred in November last year in al-Far'a camp, north of Nablus, an area that frequently sees Israeli military raids. Israel said such operations target armed groups in the camps. But in this case, video and witness accounts have cast doubt on those claims.
A Palestinian family in the occupied West Bank has spent months waiting for answers and for the return of their teenage son’s body after he was shot by Israeli soldiers and left bleeding in a narrow alley of his refugee camp. According to video cited by the BBC, 14-year-old Jad Jadallah lay wounded on the ground and soldiers stood nearby after shooting him.
The shooting occurred in November last year in al-Far’a camp, north of Nablus, an area that frequently sees Israeli military raids. Israel said such operations target armed groups in the camps. But in this case, video and witness accounts have cast doubt on those claims.
CCTV footage captured the moment Jad Jadallah encountered Israeli troops. The images show three boys peering around a corner after hearing that military vehicles were leaving the camp. Unknown to them, four soldiers were still positioned just metres away, concealed behind a wall.

His friends spotted the soldiers and ran. But Jad Jadallah did not react in time. A soldier stepped forward from close range and fired. The boy turned and tried to run up the alley. The footage shows many shots being fired from behind before he collapsed out of view after only a few steps.
Moments later showed Jad Jadallah lying wounded. He tried to get the soldiers’ attention by waving his arms and tossing his hat towards them. The soldiers appeared to ignore him and kicked the hat back. According to the BBC’s reconstruction of the timeline, he remained there for at least 45 minutes.
