Today, Monday, Israeli police executed a 14-year-old Palestinian boy at a military checkpoint near the entrance to the town of Al-Eizariya, east of occupied Jerusalem, for allegedly attempting to carry out a stabbing attack.

The Palestinian News Agency said that the occupation forces shot the boy, Wadih Owaisat, from the town of Jabal Mukaber in Jerusalem, leaving him to bleed to death, and preventing ambulance crews from reaching him.

A general strike was declared in the town of Jabal Mukaber for 3 days after the boy was killed by occupation bullets near the town of Al-Eizariya.

The broadcasting authority added that the incident did not result in any Israeli being injured.

Since the escalation of tension in the West Bank and Jerusalem against the backdrop of the devastating Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, the Israeli army has intensified its raids into Palestinian cities and camps, and increased its violence against the Palestinians, resulting in the martyrdom of 381 Palestinians and the injury of 4,400 others. .
