“It’s been almost three months since 10-year-old Abdul Rahman Shteiwi was shot in the head by Israeli forces in his village of Kafr Qaddum in the northern occupied West Bank.
What was a typical day of Friday protests on July 12 turned bloody when Israeli snipers shot the boy as he was standing at the entrance of his friend’s house in the village.
Since that day, Shteiwi has remained in the Tel Hashomer Hospital in Tel Aviv, unable to speak or move his body.” Nearly 100 pieces of shrapnel initially found in the boy’s head are mostly still lodged in his brain, The Israeli forces are denying any wrongdoing, saying live ammunition was not used thar day, despite the evidence.
