On 24 May 2016, dozens of soldiers spread through the streets of the
Jaber neighborhood in Hebron, gathering children and teens. They stood
20 of them against a wall, asked them about a stone-throwing incident
earlier that day, photographed each one and let them go. At least 14
were minors, seven including under the age of criminal liability. The
goal of this conduct appears to have been to intimidate the children and
deter them from throwing stones, in blatant disregard of the military’s
duty to protect the rights of minors.
