Israelis 'Admit' Palestinian Teen's Murder

Written By Unknown on Senin, 14 Juli 2014 | 22.56

Israel has charged three people with killing a Palestinian teenager who was set on fire and left in a forest.

It comes as rocket attacks and airstrikes between Israel and Gaza continued seven days on from the start of an Israeli offensive.

And 27 British nationals and their Palestinian dependants have been evacuated from Gaza amid the violence.

Mohammed Abu Khadeir was taken from his home in east Jerusalem and apparently burned alive in revenge for the abduction and killing of three Israeli teenagers, according to Israel's Shin Bet security service. 

The three people, two of them aged just 17, charged over the 16-year-old Palestinian's death have admitted the killing and even re-enacted the murder, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said.

Shin Bet said the three suspects "patrolled Arab neighbourhoods of Jerusalem for a number of hours, in an attempt to find a victim to abduct, until they spotted Mohammed Abu Khudair".

After forcing him into a car, he was driven to the forest where he was beaten with a tyre iron before before set on fire, the agency added.

Hamas militants were blamed for the killing of the three Israelis and since the deaths Israel has launched a concerted military operation against the group in the Gaza Strip.

At least 172 Palestinians have been killed in the offensive, which Israel says is aimed at halting rocket attacks across the border.

More than 40 sites were bombed on Sunday night, while the Israeli military said it had shot down a drone from Gaza - the first one used by Palestinian militants in the latest violence.

Elsewhere, Israeli troops shot dead a Palestinian man during clashes with stone-throwers in the occupied West Bank.

Activists said Israel also detained dozens of Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

The Palestinian Prisoners Club, which campaigns for Palestinians jailed by Israel, said 57 people were seized overnight, including 12 Hamas politicians.

That brings the number of Palestinians arrested since last month to 1,071, it said.

The Israeli military confirmed 25 arrests in the West Bank overnight.

In Gaza, Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri called the West Bank arrests "a continued Israeli escalation against our people".

On Sunday, Israeli troops launched a ground operation in the northern Gaza Strip, the first since the offensive began.

The navy commandos' brief incursion - which ignored a United Nations call for a ceasefire - targeted a rocket launcher site, according to Israeli public radio.

Thousands of residents in northern Gaza have fled their homes after the Israeli military warned them to leave for their own safety.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his forces would be hitting Hamas "with growing force".

"We do not know when this operation will end," he told ministers.

US Secretary of State John Kerry has phoned Mr Netanyahu to renew a US offer to help mediate a truce.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said he would ask the United Nations for international protection.
