The Israeli government has filed charges against an army captain in the shooting of a 13-year-old Palestinian girl. On October 5 at about 7 a.m., Israel troops opened fire on the girl named Iyman Hams as she was walking near Rafah. Israeli soldiers shot her claiming she was planting a bomb. But her family said she was simply going to school. After she was initially shot, the army captain, who has not been identified, approached her and then shot her as many as 15 more times. Last night the Israeli tv station Channel Two broadcast audio recordings of the incident where the soldier is heard explicitly stating that he had “verified the kill.” The army captain has not however been charged with manslaughter because prosecutors claim they can’t determine who fired the shots that killed the girl.
