JERUSALEM (Ma’an) — A 17-year-old Palestinian was shot dead at the Al-Zayyim checkpoint in occupied East Jerusalem after allegedly attempting to stab checkpoint officers just before midnight on Friday.
The teenager, Ali Mohammed Ali Said Abu Ghannam from the Al-Tur neighborhood of occupied East Jerusalem, began running toward a number of police officers at a checking station “wielding a large knife,” according to statement issued by Israeli police.
After being pushed back by an officer, Abu Ghannam ran in the direction of the crossing. Those guarding the checkpoint saw the youth running towards them and shot him, the statement said.
Abu Ghannam was confirmed dead.
Abu Ghannam’s father Muhammad told Ma’an that Israeli intelligence and security forces summoned him to the al-Zayyim checkpoint to identify his son’s body, and then was taken to the Russian Compound police station in West Jerusalem.
Muhammad Abu Ghannam added that after identifying his son’s face, he was prevented from seeing his son’s body and not able to see where or how many times he had been shot.

JERUSALEM (Ma’an) — Israeli authorities have agreed to release the body of a 17-year-old Palestinian who was shot dead by Israeli police on Friday after he allegedly ran at them “wielding” a knife.
Lawyer of Addameer human rights group Muhammad Mahmoud said that Israeli authorities would release the body of Muhammad Abu Ghannam to his family after midnight on Sunday.
Israeli authorities said they would allow 70 people to attend his burial at a cemetery close to his home in al-Tur.
They refused on Saturday night to release his body after a Palestinian from Shufat refugee camp allegedly rammed his car into a group of Israeli police officers, injuring four.

HEBRON (Ma’an) — A Palestinian man was shot dead after stabbing an Israeli soldier at the Ibrahimi Mosque in the southern West Bank city of Hebron.
The mosque’s director Munther Abu al-Failat told Ma’an he had been told by witnesses that the soldier was stabbed about three times before he shot back at the Palestinian.
Early reports in Israeli and Palestinian media named the Palestinian as Assad al-Salayma , although local sources told Ma’an the man, believed to be in his 20s, had not yet been identified.
AFP reported that Israeli soldiers had been preventing Palestinians from accessing the mosque when the incident took place.
Both the Israeli soldier and the Palestinian were moved from the mosque by ambulance, although the Palestinian was confirmed dead before he arrived at the hospital.
Israeli police said that the Israeli soldier received stab wounds in his head and chest, and described his condition as moderate. They said he is now in a Jerusalem hospital.
The incident comes less than a week after Israeli settlers raised the Israeli flag over the roof of the mosque in a bid to provoke local Palestinians.
