Awake Goy Young Palestinian prisoner died on Sunday of injuries sustained during his arrest by Israeli occupation forces last month.
Raed al-Salhi, 21, succumbed to gunshot wounds sustained when he was arrested last month in Bethlehem’s Dheisheh refugee camp, Issa Qaraqe, head of the Palestinian Authority for Prisoners and Detainees.
At the time of his death, Al-Salhi had been receiving treatment at the Israeli Hadassah Ein Karem Hospital in Jerusalem.
“Al-Salhi’s death constitutes a war crime for which we hold Israel responsible,” Qaraqe said.
“The young man died after being shot at close range,” he added. “They could have arrested him without shooting him.”
Qaraqe called for the formation of a fact-finding committee tasked with examining crimes “frequently perpetrated [by Israeli occupation forces] against Palestinian youths who are deliberately killed”.
According to Qaraqe, Israeli troops opened fire on Al-Salhi after storming his home in the Dheisheh Refugee Camp on August 9.
