Israeli Army jeep crushes Palestinian teen to death

(MENAFN - Arab News) A 17-year-old Palestinian was fatally rolled over by an Israeli Army vehicle on Wednesday during a brief incursion into the West Bank town of Ya'bad, to the southwest of Jenin.

Palestinian medical and security sources in Jenin told Arab News that the boy, Fouad Nayef Turkman, was run over twice by one of the vehicles.

The sources said that Turkman "was standing at the entrance of Izz el-Din Al-Qassam school when the Israeli military jeeps entered Ya'bad." The medical sources said that the boy sustained critical wounds and later died in a Jenin hospital.

The security sources believe the boy was intentionally run over.

In a separate development, Israeli police said it arrested a 22-year-old man from West Bank city of Nablus who impersonated an Israeli border guard. The young man was arrested after trying to enter the central bus station in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv claiming he was an officer, however he could not display an identity card.
