Palestinian journalist killed near Bethlehem


Last Wednesday journalist Aziz Atineh, 32, from Atamra village near Bethlehem, died from injuries sustained on 19 October. He had been hit in the head with live ammunition and had been in a critical condition since. Atineh had been taking photographs of clashes when he was shot. From the evidence available, Israeli forces must have targeted him, despite his having no involvement in the violence. Atineh leaves behind a wife of 27 days. The death toll in Israel is nearly 200 now. Most of the victims are Palestinian and 30 are children.
