Gaza: The occupation let go the body of the child Ashtoy after 3 months of detention

The Israeli occupation authorities on Tuesday released the body of a Palestinian child who was killed about three months ago in the southern Gaza Strip town of Rafah.
According to a correspondent in Gaza, the Israeli occupation authorities handed over the body of the child, Yitzhak Abdel-Moti Ashyouwi, 16, through the checkpoint "Beit Hanoun" (Erez), whose body was missing for nearly three months in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Martyr´s family and a representative of the Al Mezan Center for Human Rights received his body at the Beit Hanoun / Erez crossing in the northern Gaza Strip and went to al-Shifa medical complex to launch his funeral procession in his hometown of Rafah.
Ashtiwi was martyred on April 14 April east of Rafah in southern Gaza Strip from wounds he sustained on the third of the same month, where he was accompanied by other youths who were arrested and the occupation authorities denied to hand over his body to his relatives for burial.
The family of Al-Shaheed Ashtiwi recently initiated judicial proceedings for the recovery of her son´s body in the Israeli occupation, where the Al-Mezan Center for Human Rights was called to raise a judicial invitation to the occupation to recover his body.
With the release of the body of Ashtioui, the number of Palestinian martyrs whose bodies are being held by the occupation authorities is decreasing since the return marchs were launched on the 30th of March March 2018 to 11 martyrs, including four children under 18 years of age .
The Israeli occupation authorities have been pursuing the policy of disregarding the bodies of martyrs for many years, to increase retaliation, and to try to break the will of the residents of the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem.
The bodies of the martyrs in the Gaza Strip, in an attempt to put pressure on the Palestinian resistance, are more stringent for handing them back in return for their family soldiers in Gaza and "strengthening their bargaining position."
The occupation authorities determine some 260 martyrs in private cemeteries called "numbers Graves" and and more than 15 martyrs in their refrigerators.
