Palestinian teen burned alive by Israeli settlers and American Cousin Beaten By IDF

Initial autopsy findings from the charred body of a Palestinian teenager from East Jerusalem who was kidnapped and killed by Israeli settlers showed that he was burned alive, according to the Palestinian attorney general.

 

“The direct cause of death was burns as a result of fire and its complications,” Mohammed Al-A’wewy was quoted as saying by the Palestinian official news agency Wafa late on Friday. The rest of this here.

 

The 15-year-old American cousin of a Palestinian teen who was abducted and killed in Jerusalem was beaten and jailed by Israeli police in what relatives say was 'attempted murder'.
Tariq Khdeir, a student at the Universal Academy of Florida, an Islamic school in Tampa, is the cousin of Mohammed Abu Khdeir, who it is claimed was burnt to death by Israeli extremists in a revenge attack on Wednesday.
Tariq's parents, Suha and Salah, told the Associated Press that their son was beaten by police during clashes on Thursday ahead of the funeral and that he was detained.
An Israeli police spokeswoman said that Tariq Abu Khdeir had resisted arrest and attacked police officers. More here.
