Story
Israel continues its violations against Palestinian children with the murder of 15 year Ali Abu Alia on 4 December 2020. Ali was killed as a result of a shot fired to his abdomen by Israeli forces whilst observing a peaceful demonstration. This follows the murder of Amer Abdel-Rahim Snobar in October, who was helping a friend move a car when Israeli forces arrived. Doctors stated he likely died from asphyxiation as a result of strangulation by the Israeli forces.
Israel use unwarranted lethal force against Palestinian children as well as live ammunition against children, which is a violation of United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Israel routinely subject Palestinian children to night raids and force them to sign confessions without any legal representation.
Currently, 15 Palestinian children are being held in solitary confinement and 186 children in ‘security’ detention.
