IDF: Palestinian Woman Didn't Die from Tear Gas
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Katz - Jawaher Abu Rahma, the woman who Palestinians claimed was killed on Dec. 31 by IDF-fired tear gas during a demonstration, died as a result of the medical treatment she received at a Ramallah hospital, Brig.-Gen. Nitzan Alon, commander of the IDF's Judea and Samaria Division, said Friday. Alon said new medical documents from the West Bank hospital where she was treated indicated that the woman received doses of different types of medication completely unrelated to tear gas inhalation. Furthermore, she did not actively participate in the demonstration, but was inside a house about 500 meters away.
