WATCH: Israeli commanders ordered live fire ambush of Palestinians teens

Internal information in the Yusef a-Shawamreh killing reveals: Israeli commanders ordered live fire ambush of Palestinians teens, though they posed no danger. The result: a 14-year-old killed, no one held accountable.

Video: Summary of the military surveillance footage. Watch all the footage sent to B’Tselem by the military here: http://bit.ly/_IDF_camera

In March 2014, soldiers killed Yusef a-Shawamreh, 14, as he crossed the Separation Barrier to pick edible plants for his family. He was shot although he posed no danger, in broad daylight. In July 2014, the MAG Corps declared the investigation closed with no charges. Examination of the military file revealed a sloppy investigation and corroborated B’Tselem’s suspicion of unlawful conduct in the incident. The MAG Corps effectively sanctioned this conduct by accepting a flawed investigation and releasing the commanders from accountability.
