A new crime committed by the Israeli occupation army – Martyrdom of a Palestinian youth due to severe beatings during his arrest

On Tuesday morning, September 18, 2018, the Palestinian youth Mohammed al-Khatib, 24 years, from Beit Rima, near Ramallah, was killed after he was severely beaten by the Israeli army during his arrest by the special units of the Israeli army.

Bashir, the brother of the martyr, said that about 40 soldiers from the Israeli special units stormed the family’s house at dawn. They arrested Mohammed and beat him severely and brutally. He fell unconscious and was arrested. His death was announced in the morning.

The family of the youth Mohammed accuses the Israeli army of carrying out a field execution to their son, especially that he was brutally and severely beaten during his arrest without any justification.
