The death on Monday of a 12-year-old boy wounded by Israeli gunfire last month brought the number of Palestinian teens and children who have died at the hands of Israeli occupation forces since Friday to five.
Middle East Eye reports Mahmoud Mohammad Samoudi, 12, succumbed to wounds sustained on September 28, when Israeli forces shot him in the stomach with live ammunition during an Operation Break the Wave raid on the Jenin refugee camp, where armed resistance to the occupation has mounted in recent months.
Samoudi is the 44th Palestinian killed by Israeli troops in Jenin this year. Palestinian officials and rights groups say more than 165 people have been killed by Israeli forces throughout Palestine this year, including at least 14 women and 34 children.

WAFA, the official news agency of the Palestine National Authority, reported Friday that troops shot at residents of al-Mazra’a al-Gharbiyah near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank during confrontations with illegal Jewish settler colonists, killing 17-year-old Mahdi Ladadweh.
Meanwhile in Qalqilya in the northern West Bank, Israeli troops opened fire in response to an alleged Molotov cocktail attack, killing a 14-year-old boy, Adel Ibrahim Daoud.
On Saturday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Israeli forces killed two Palestinian teenagers – 18-year-old Mohammed Asus and 19-year-old Ahmad Mohammed Daraghmeh – as they stormed the Jenin refugee camp searching for wanted resistance fighters.
Also on Saturday, a Palestinian resisting the occupation shot and killed 18-year-old Israeli military policewoman Noa Lazar, who was posted at a checkpoint near the Shuafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem.
The Israeli army fatally shot four Palestinian teenagers in separate incidents in the occupied West Bank within 24 hours.

Nabil Abu Rudeineh, the spokesperson for Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, accused Israeli forces of waging “an all-out war” against the people of Jenin.
“The Israeli occupation government is delusional when it believes that the killing of dozens of our people, the injury of hundreds, the destruction of dozens of homes, and the continuation of army-protected settler attacks will bring security and stability,” he said, according to Haaretz.
“It must be aware that our steadfast people will remain committed to their rights and national principles defending their land and sanctities at all costs,” Abu Rudeineh added.
For a year and a half, Palestinian youth have taken up arms to resist relentless Israeli incursions into the Jenin refugee camp, which was founded nearly 70 years ago to house Palestinians ethnically cleansed by Jewish forces founding the modern state of Israel.
The renewed resistance is also happening in the Balata refugee camp outside Nablus, where around 30,000 Palestinians live packed into an area with 10 times the population density of New York City. Many residents say they feel as if they live in an open-air prison, as their ability to travel and work is severely restricted by the occupation.
“I feel hopeless,” Amir, a 26-year-old from Nablus, told+972 Magazine last week. “On one hand, it is good that young people are leading the struggle. They have created an atmosphere of resistance that we all need and are happy to have. They are heroes. But after they die, nothing on the ground changes except for the fact that there is another martyr.”

Who fucking cares. Another vile shit stinking muslim pig who will never grow up to be a terrorist. Nice one Israel!
Who are Israelis? In fact they are NATO trespassers. They are in every single country but nowadays they are mostly in Ukraine fighting against Russia.
There Satan parasites an most proud of it..They build lodges in peoples countries to hide in. Call them scum-sucking degenerate iinfernals and they’ll take it as a compliment.
Likely best thing for the poor boy cause the Terrorists probably shot them all in balls crotch as all the aid agencies were continually complaining about. Better dead than go through life Uniked.
Future terrors
You’re wasting your time here my friend! It’s just a haven for sad little Jew hating fags who firmly believe that everything bad that has ever happened in the World is the fault of the Jews. They probably even believe the Jews were responsible for wiping the dinosaurs out! It’s actually quite funny to read all their comments sometimes! As i say, your wasting your time posting here. You’ll only be called a bunch of pathetically immature anti-Semitic names. Just wait and see. If anything these morons are as predictable as they are dumb!
ISLAM or LAM(b) of IS,(,is) is Judaism 2.0 so you’re hating the same JEWRY ya DAMN IDIOT. Go ahead and say its Arabs you really don’t like n again you”re SAME idiot cause they’re BOTH Babylonian Semetic which makes you also FASCIST. Now tell us how it is you PRESUME the youth/s were NOT Christian to begin with BC only one ilk would dodge that fearing reprisals from Zionist-Christian supporters—>A FASCIST JEWSCUM you are
So was Nora.
So was 6 million that hitler does. Glory to him!
Had this Child been a Jewish settler the Western Media and in particular the BBC and CNN would have reported this as a top story on their TV news outlets This Child was a Palestinian boy a 12 year old and the Jews will use their influence to make sure that this report is buried and that few will ever hear this boys name. So call his name out from the rooftops and let the world know the truth……. Mahmoud Samoudi and the other young men who would not be silenced or intimidated by the Israeli state
Awww. Another inbred kebab bites the dust. Big loss for his uncles. Boy was such a pretty cumdump….. All family’s dicks are in deep sorrow……
This moronic psycho actually has admin rights on SF!
He is a closet homosexual with terrible inferiority complex and very low IQ
He deleted all comments but his own and now use fake upvotes. How crazy is that?
Even more retarded he usually talks shit against SF and people who writes here.
Are they blind, criminally incompetent or just incredibly stupid?
Regarding the Zaporheze nuclear plant: They should capture Zelensky and put him inside the plant. Preferably in a nice warm place close to the reactor core in case of attack he will be nice and safe there. FSB are you listening out there… He can always entertain the guards by throwing his fat buttocks around.
Israel was created by the british crown corporation in the 40’s. An Israeli terrorist group was in fact supported by them, much like the Isis and the rest today
IDF… They specialize in asymmetric combat only… They can kill children and unarmed ladies working for the press, but not much else. If you need a wall built or a child murderer call Israel, they specialize in building walls, and raping lil kids. Their chief export products are hasbara and proxy terrorists dressed up like ISIS fighters. Such a sad little Rothschild fifedom shit hole… Just nuke it off the planet and do us all a favour Vlad.
Let’s be honest people, we need a Christian holy war to wipe the Israelis off the fucking map and out of Palestine forever.
I pray that the khaZar poison be bled from apartheid occupied Palestine and that land be returned to the Semitic people that own it. We know this will happen of course when the tax cattle tribute from the angloZionaZi empire of shit in the “West” is stopped and that is already happening as the IOU fiat filth Saudi Mercan toilet paper dollah and USSAN chosenite ponZi Wall St shitter implode. But what will happen to the evil clique running this criminal Rothschild abomination when the land of Palestine is freed? Would you want these thugs and animals anywhere in a ghetto near you? They will flee Palestine and poison any society that allows them to nest again from where they were once expelled and fled. “Israel” needs to be completely destroyed and its squatters dealt with in the same way the khaZar entity in rump Ukropland that spawned these supremacist demons are currently being dealt with.
The daily, wanton crimes of the ZionaZi mongrels in Palestine are a stain on all humanity and the longer it persists the more drastic will be the punishment earned by these dogs.
Did senile jew biten told that Oukraine has the right to reconquer the “occupied” land and that the US, UK, and nato will help them??? So has the Palestinians the same rights to exterminate the genetic modified parasite, occupier and war criminal zionists !!! Iran, Syria and Lebanon has the rigth to help them with armaments and manpower. Palestinians should learn how to bobytrap the parasites when they came in your villadges at night.
Hmmmm All the people calling out this atrocity seem to be getting censored whilst the vile maniac “BrentonTarrant – Muslim Killer” is spamming the entire chat with his neocon Zionist genocidal garbage.
Does this reveal the Zionist political leanings of SF’s editors? I hope not.
p.s. Funny how the people supporting this genocide of children are some of the same names that have been shilling the hohol genocides in Donbass.
Might this reveal (((something))) about who is behind the Ukraine garbage?
The isreali apartheid regime doing what it does best. Killing women and children, and pinching homes.
What goes around, comes around.
Israel will go up all at once in a genuine holocaust.
It is always nice to hear kebab’s real thinking so when we are shooting them on Gaza, there is no guilt but joy.
Who are Israel? In fact they are NATOs trespassed to Palestine.
They also trespassed to Ukraine to fight against Russia.
Hey Southfront, you are erasing my and others´comments while leaving individual brenton- tarrant and inbred kebab suffocating the debate. This you call impartiality when asking with one breath for donations? You are clearly taking sides. I wish others notice that too.
Yes, I see this too.
Yes, which tells me SF isn’t owned by who it once was. Isn’t that right?
