The Palestinian Media Centre web site said Israeli occupation forces executed 13-year-old Samir Abu Mayala from Al-Thuri neighbourhood of occupied East Jerusalem after shooting him in the shoulder. They also detained three of his friends after brutally beating them.
Eyewitnesses reported that a number of Israeli occupation soldiers chased five Palestinian boys in the Harajiyah area, which separates Al-Thuri and Jabal al-Mukabbir neighbourhoods, and opened fire at them. Samir received a bullet in the shoulder and another boy received a bullet in the leg after Israeli authorities claimed that an Israeli woman had been stabbed in the area.
Witnesses added that the Israeli occupation soldiers viciously beat Samir and as soon as the child fell unconscious, an Israeli police officer lifted him and threw him to the ground. The ambulance then arrived and declared him dead shortly after.
The Israeli police said the boy died as a result of a heart attack after being captured by the Israeli occupation soldiers.
