Israel to return 2 killed Palestinians’ bodies

Friday 6-January-2017

The Israeli Occupation Authorities (IOA) on Friday announced that it would return the bodies of two slain Palestinians from al-Khalil to the south of West Bank to their families for burial.

Member of the Palestinian National Committee for Retrieving Bodies of Martyrs Amin al-Bayid affirmed that the IOA decided to release the bodies of two Palestinians killed recently by Israeli gunfire.

Al-Bayid identified the two as Hatem Al-Shaloudi and Mohammed Rajabi.

The bodies of the two slain youths are expected to be handed over in al-Ahli Hospital for burial on Saturday.

Al-Shaloudi 26 was killed by Israeli gunfire on September 17 2016 during an alleged stabbing attack.

The 16-year-old Rajabi was also executed by Israeli occupation forces on September 16 2016 for allegedly trying to stab a group of soldiers in al-Khalil.

Since then the two killed Palestinians’ bodies were held in Israeli morgues.
