In a very dark night a large Israeli force stormed Kafr Dan town in Jenin and executed in cold blood the 17-year-old teen Uday Salah.
The night raid came without prior notice shortly after an Israeli military officer and two Palestinian young men were killed in exchange of fire at the nearby Jalama checkpoint.
Uday Salah was the latest victim of the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) that have a long history of killing children and minors without showing any mercy.
Uday’s father said that Uday was his eldest son and was born when he was in Israeli prison.
“I was arrested in 2004. When I was released in 2008 Uday was 3-year-old” he added.
“The (Israeli) army stormed the town from all its entrances. Uday went out to see what was going on and as soon as he came out they killed him” the father continued.
He pointed out that the IOF stormed the town to take revenge and terrorize its people.
“I have always dreamed of seeing Uday as a young man who one day would achieve his dreams and ambitions. However the occupation as usual kills dreams before they start.”
Muhammad Uday’s friend expressed deep sorrow over his close friend’s murder asking: “What did he do to be killed by Israel?”
He said that Uday was his neighbor and closest friend and they spend most of the time with each other.
Commenting on the Israeli crime Hamas Movement condemned “the extra-judicial daily killings of defenseless Palestinians the latest of which was the killing of Palestinian minor Uday Salah.”
Hamas reiterated that the IOF’s killings arrests demolition of Palestinian homes and violations against Islamic and Christian sanctities will be confronted with all means possible.
