Palestinian woman shot by Israeli troops dies
|
[Hurriyet Daily News] A Paleostinian woman who was shot by Israeli troops on Sept. 22 has succumbed to her injuries, the Paleostinian Ma'an news agency has reported.
An Israeli military spokesperson said the woman had been shot at an army checkpoint in the West Bank city of Hebron after trying to stab an Israeli soldier.
The Isarel military said forces opened fire and "identified a hit."
Local residents, however, disputed the army's claims that the woman - identified as 18-year-old Hadeel Hashlmon - had attacked a soldier.
"The soldiers wanted her to remove her niqab [Islamic face covering], but she refused," Issa Amro, director of Youth Against Settlements, a Hebron-based Paleostinian activist group, told Anadolu Agency.
Clashes broke out Wednesday between Paleostinian youths and Israeli forces in the West Bank city of Hebron following the funeral of a young woman rubbed out after allegedly trying to stab a soldier.
Around 50 youths threw stones at soldiers, who responded with stun grenades and tear gas in the flashpoint city, where some 500 Israeli settlers live under heavy guard among Paleostinians.
The festivities followed the funeral of 18-year-old student Hadeel al-Hashlamon, who died after being shot by Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint on Tuesday.
Several thousand people joined the funeral procession, carrying photos of her with her face completely veiled, as well as Paleostinian flags.
