The Israeli Central Court in occupied Jerusalem sentenced Wednesday a teenage Palestinian girl to 13 and a half years for an alleged stabbing attack.

The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) affirmed that the 16-year-old Nurhan Awwad was sentenced to 13 and a half years plus a fine of 30000 shekels.

Nurhan was arrested on Nov. 23 2015 after being shot and injured by Israeli forces for allegedly trying to carry out a stabbing attack in occupied Jerusalem along with her cousin Hadil Awad who was killed during the incident.
