A military law-enforcement body operating within or alongside armed forces
A seven‑month‑old Palestinian boy, Sam Fahd Abu Haikal, has been killed and his parents have been wounded after an Israeli soldier has fired at the family’s car in Tel Rumeida, south of Hebron. Rights group B'Tselem has released video that it says shows the vehicle was stopping, and Israel’s military has opened a Military Police investigation.
Video evidence from B’Tselem contradicts Israeli claims that a car carrying a Palestinian family slowed before soldiers opened fire near Hebron. Seven-month-old Sam Abu Haikal was killed; his parents were injured. The incident adds to ongoing West Bank violence amid a fragile ceasefire.
