A shocking video has emerged of Israeli soldiers pushing a disabled man out of his wheelchair after they had shot a Palestinian girl in the West Bank. The 14-year-old girl had been gunned down after she tried to stab a police officer.
The Wheelchair user Majed al-Fakhouri was trying to reach the girl to attempt first aid. The officer told him to turn back. “He then turned me over and my head hit the ground,” he said.
The girl was taken to hospital in a serious condition, Israeli officials have said.

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
