Beitunia killings
The Beitunia killings refers to the consecutive killings of two Palestinian teenagers, which took place on the occasion of the annual Nakba day protests on May 15, 2014, near the Israeli Ofer Prison outside Beitunia in the occupied West Bank. Israel described the protest as a riot in which a crowd refused to disperse,〔 and initially denied responsibility, saying the cause of the deaths was unknown, the deaths were faked, that video clips of the killings either failed to capture the violence of the scene shortly before, or might have been manipulated, that soldiers had been provoked and that only rubber bullets had been fired.〔Jodi Rudoren, ('Video Renews Questions on Death of Young Palestinians,' ) New York Times, 20 May 2014.〕〔Jonathan Cook, ('You can’t force-feed occupation to those who crave freedom,' ) The National 23 June 2014.〕 Third party evidence and investigations, based on multiple sources, refuted the IDF position, while an autopsy showed that one of the teenagers had been shot with live ammunition.〔
Ben Deri (21) of Rishon LeZion, an Israeli border police officer was arrested six months later and charged with shooting one of the two killed Palestinians, Nadim Nawarah (17)〔Aviel Magenzi, ('Israel names Border Police officer accused of killing Palestinian protester,' )Ynet 14 December 2014.〕 after forensic evidence proved one of the lethal bullets came from his gun.〔Chaim Levinson, ("Forensics: Bullet that killed Palestinian teen came from Border Policeman's gun" ), Haaretz 19 November 2014.〕
==Background==
While Israel celebrates its Independence Day, Palestinians commemorate Nakba Day in remembrance of the forced displacement when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled or were driven from their homes in 500 villages in Palestine in 1948, as Israeli soldiers fought to establish their state.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='PHOTOS: Nakba commemorations from Gaza to the Galilee )〕 The occasion is often celebrated from the Galilee to Gaza, with protest rallies, the waving of black mourning flags, the flourishing of keys to lost Palestinian homes,〔 the sounding of sirens at midday,〔 and marches to the sites of destroyed homes and villages.〔〔 For Israel’s Prime Minister Binjamin Netanyahu the purpose of such Palestinian commemoration is to ‘mark the tragedy of the establishment of the State of Israel, the state of the Jewish people.’〔 The event on May 15, 2014, the 64th anniversity of the catastrophe,〔Melanie Lidman, Oren Kessler, Yaakov Katz, Yaakov Lapin, ('Three Border Police, one IDF soldier, 270 Palestinians lightly injured; Fayyad says no compromise on right of return,' ) Jerusalem Post, 15 May 2014.〕 was also marked by solidarity demonstrations for Palestinians in administrative detention who, from 24 April, were conducting a hunger-strike, in protest against what Palestinian sources stated was Israeli backtracking on an agreement, made after an earliler strike, to restrict the practice of administrative detention only to exceptional cases.〔 In the past, such days of remembrance have at times turned violent: in 2011 Israeli troops responded to an attempt by thousands of protesters to breach Israel's northern frontiers by opening fire that killed 10 people and injuring hundreds.〔 Israel has been accused by Amnesty International of being 'trigger-happy' in adopting excessive force on such occasions; 27 fatalities from Israel shooting at stone-throwing demonstrations were registered in the preceding year, 2013.〔〔("Trigger-Happy: Israel's use of excessive force in the West Bank" ), Amnesty International, 27 February 2014.〕 On the occasion of the 2014 commemorations, clashes, described as relatively low-level,〔 broke out between Israeli forces and demonstrating Palestinians in Ni'lin, Bethlehem, the Al-Isawiya neighborhood in East Jerusalem.〔 In two areas, at the Qalandiya crossing near Ramallah, and in Beitunia, violence was more marked. Overall 270 Palestinians, one Israeli soldier and 3 border policemen were injured.〔
