IOF used Palestinian children as human shields
On another note, Israeli soldiers reportedly used three Palestinian children as human shields during violent raids in Tulkarm, West Bank, earlier this month, according to a Defense for Children International (DCI) report.
The children were forced to walk in front of occupation forces as they raided the alleyways of the Nur Shams refugee camp and the homes of Palestinians in its vicinity.
According to a report, Israeli soldiers allegedly used two Palestinian children as human shields by placing rifles on their shoulders and firing shots in two incidents. Another child recounted how Israeli occupation forces separated him from his family during a raid on their apartment. Subsequently, he was coerced to knock on neighbors' doors, urging them to leave.
