The Israeli occupation forces have once again demonstrated their brutality and disregard for Palestinian lives, this time targeting a young boy in the West Bank. The killing of 15-year-old Fahd Zaidan Oweis in Al-Lubban al-Sharqiya village, south of Nablus, is a tragic reminder of the ongoing violence and oppression faced by Palestinians.
According to official Palestinian News Agency "Wafa," the child was shot while in the village plain. The occupation forces not only took his life but also callously confiscated his body, denying his family and the Palestinian Red Crescent access to him. This act of barbarity is a clear violation of human rights and international law.
The child was shot during his presence in the village plain, which led to his martyrdom.
This incident is not an isolated one. It is part of a systematic pattern of violence and repression by the Israeli occupation forces against Palestinians. The international community must hold Israel accountable for its actions and demand an end to the occupation and its atrocities. The world must not remain silent in the face of such injustice.
The occupation forces detained his body and prevented Palestinian Red Crescent crews from reaching him.
