Palestinian Killed while Hurling Firebombs at Israeli Cars
(Times of Israel-Jerusalem Post) Aaron Boxerman - Muhammad Shahada, 14, was shot dead by Israeli troops Tuesday night while throwing firebombs at passing cars near Bethlehem. Israelis traveling along the main traffic artery between Jerusalem and Gush Etzion have been attacked with firebombs at a spot near al-Khader at least seven times in the last month. The Israel Defense Forces said "three Palestinian suspects" were responsible for a string of attacks. "The troops fired at one of the suspects while he threw a firebomb, and hit him," the IDF said.
