Israeli soldiers, on Monday, shot and killed a Palestinian child at a military roadblock near the town of Al-Eizariya east of occupied Jerusalem.

Media sources said that occupation forces shot a child after he allegedly tried to stab a soldier, although there were no reports of any injuries among soldiers.

Sources identified the slain child as Wadea Shadi Owaisat Elian, 14, a resident of the town of Jabal Al-Mokabber.

A video taken by an eyewitness shows the injured child lying motionless on the ground.

An Israeli soldier approached the child and shot him at point-blank range.
