An Israeli NGO broadcast a video of an Israeli police assault a Palestinian child


A video released by the Israeli NGO B'Tselem shows an agent of the Israeli Border Police attacked a Palestinian child while another officer held him in a new case of violence by Israeli security forces against Palestinians. "The incident takes place in the area around the Tomb of the Patriarch in Hebron, which is located in a Palestinian neighborhood in which children play in the street and there are many outstanding border guards," said Sarit Michaeli Efe, a spokesman B'Tselem. "According to testimony obtained by the organization of area residents, attacks like this are very common," he adds. In the video shows how hard a soldier grabs the child and says, "Why are you putting together mess?" while the little screams. Another officer comes over and kicks him, after which you leave the child free and runs off. The incident occurred on Sunday and the images were taken by a volunteer who had received a camera to capture and NGOs to denounce these situations. The same child who is 9 years old, filed a complaint with B'Tselem about a month ago after being beaten by a soldier coming home from school. The minor stated that before the incident, had gone to a military checkpoint with a friend, and that he had thrown a stone at the soldiers.
