Israeli Forces Kill 4 Palestinians Teens; Israel to Compensate Family of Slain Palestinian American
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces killed four Palestinian
teenagers in three separate attacks over the weekend. The youngest
victim was 14-year-old Adel Ibrahim Daoud, who was shot dead near the
Israeli separation barrier. On Saturday, an Israeli soldier was fatally
shot at a military checkpoint in East Jerusalem.

In other news from the Occupied Territories, Israel has agreed to pay
$141,000 to the family of Omar Asaad, an 80-year-old Palestinian
American man who died after being violently detained by Israeli forces
in January. It's extremely rare for the Israeli military to admit
wrongdoing or compensate Palestinian victims of its crimes.
