A 15-year old Palestinian was shot dead by Israeli forces in the West Bank on Tuesday morning.
According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, Adam Essam Ayyad was shot in the chest with a live bullet in Dheisheh refugee camp, south of Bethlehem.
Adam Ayyad was shot in the chest during a military raid at Dheisheh refugee camp, the official Wafa news agency reported. It said another child was shot in the hand during the raid.
More than 200 Palestinians were killed in the West Bank and Gaza last year, with some parts of the West Bank seeing almost daily army raids as Israeli forces cracked down on militant groups suspected of a wave of attacks in Israel.
