Abu Qatish: Israeli Authorities Have Killed 37 Children Since the Beginning of the Current Year

Today, Saturday, Ayed Abu Qatish, the Director of the Accountability Program at the International Movement for the Defense of Children, stated that Israeli occupation authorities have killed 31 children in the West Bank and 6 in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the current year.

Abu Qatish further revealed that the Israeli authorities continue to detain 160 children, including 21 held under administrative detention.
