The Israeli military says it is reviewing the killing of a 16-year-old Palestinian during a raid amid a surge in West Bank violence where 53 minors have died this year.
- Israel Defense Forces said it is reviewing the shooting that killed 16-year-old Rayyan Mohammad Abu Mualla in Qabatiya, occupied West Bank, Reuters reported on Dec 22.

- The larger context is a surge of violence since October 2023, with more than 1,102 Palestinians killed and nearly 11,000 wounded, and 53 minors killed since January, according to United Nations and Palestinian health ministry tallies.
