RAMALLAH, Sept 29 (KUNA) -- A Palestinian seven-year-old boy was martyred when he fell down from a high place while the Israeli occupation forces were chasing him in Tekoa village, southeast Bethlehem, in the occupied West Bank on Thursday.
In a statement, Palestine's Health Ministry said that the medical staff at Beit Jala Governmental Hospital could not save the life of the boy, identified as Rayan Suleiman.
Eyewitnesses stated that the occupation forces chased the young children who threw them with stones and fired gas and sound bombs at them.
Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates holds the Israeli government full responsibility for the crime committed by the occupation forces against the child Rayan, adding that it happens daily to their people with approval of Israeli officials. (end)
