Saturday 26-August-2017

An eight-year-old Palestinian girl died on Saturday after a Jewish settler ran over her in Beit Dajan near al-Hamra military barrier in Jordan Valley.

A medical source revealed that the slain child was identified as Asil Abu Own from Jaba town in Jenin. She died of her serious wounds after she was run over by a settler’s car according to WAFA news agency.

Many Palestinian children and even adults died in similar incidents by Jewish settlers in Occupied Jerusalem and the West Bank. Although most of the incidents were carried out deliberately yet Israeli occupation authorities did not take any punitive measures against the perpetrators.
