Israeli soldiers fire crowd control weapons at heads of two boys, aged 10 and 14, injuring them

(B’Tselem) – In February 2018 B’Tselem documented two instances in the Ramallah area in which soldiers, in contravention of open-fire regulations, fired crowd control weapons at the heads of children, injuring them. The soldiers fired during protests and other stone-throwing incidents, and in both cases, neither the soldiers nor anyone else was facing mortal danger. Muhammad Nubani, 14 years old, lives in al-Birah. He was injured on 9 February 2018 by a rubber-coated metal bullet that lodged in his eye. Saleh Yihya, 10 years old, lives in Deir Nidham. He was injured by a teargas canister fired directly at his head.
