The Ministry expressed that this new crime committed by the occupation forces against the child is part of the daily series of killings against Palestinians and expresses the level of moral decadence in the occupation forces.

In a statement, the Ministry held the occupation government fully and directly responsible for this crime, calling on the international community to provide international protection for Palestinians.
