NAZARETH, (PIC)– Israeli military investigation into the death of a Palestinian boy in Badares village, west of Ramallah, indicated that he came under heavy fire.
Hebrew daily Haaretz said on Wednesday that the preliminary investigation into the incident revealed that Samir Awad was killed in intensive firing.
The report disclosed that the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have orders to shoot live bullets at any protests, noting that the order had led to the murder of a number of Palestinian youths during recent protests in the West Bank.
The paper said that in another incident the IOF fired 80 live bullets “without convincing reasons” at a demonstration in Nabi Saleh village in Ramallah, which killed Rashid Tamimi, 31.
It said that the IOF commander in the area fired teargas canisters at the youths who were protesting the war on Gaza and when the soldiers ran out of canisters he ordered more of them and ordered his soldiers to use live bullets at the demonstrators who were throwing stones.
