The war between Israel and the Hamas group has been going on for a long time due to which bloodshed is being shed on both sides. Even innocent children and teenagers are being victimized unjustly due to their enmity.
Recently, a young American and Palestinian citizen was shot dead by Israeli soldiers. He was only 17 years old, his name was Tawfiq Hijazi.
Palestinians threw stones at soldiers in the West Bank, a disputed area between Israel and Palestine. At that time, Tawfik Hijazi was also there throwing stones.
He was hit by a bullet when soldiers opened fire and died on the spot. Palestinian health officials and his uncle announced Tawfiq's death on Friday.
His death has made the situation even more tense, with many calling for an investigation into what happened and why he was killed. His death also shows how important it is to find a peaceful way to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The American government said that they were very concerned about his death. They said that they are trying to find out more details about what happened. This was said by the White House spokesperson John Kirby.
