[Tuesday Evening, June 3, 2014] The body of the slain Palestinian, who was killed by the Israeli soldiers on Monday, was handed to his family at the Awarta military roadblock, east of the northern West Bank city of Nablus.The Palestinian, ‘Ala Mohammad Odeh, 30 years of age, was killed late on Monday at the roadblock, and the army alleged that he shot a soldier before the army killed him.

Eyewitnesses said the soldiers left Odeh bleeding on the ground, and blocked Palestinian medics from providing him with the urgently needed medical attention.

Following his death, the army took his body, and only handed it back to the family on Tuesday evening.

Odeh’s body was then transported by a Red Crescent Ambulance to the Rafidia governmental hospital in Nablus, where hundreds of Palestinians gathered chanting against the ongoing Israeli military aggression.

His funeral ceremony will be held on Wednesday.
