APAIMages - APAIMages CLIENTS ONLY, Ramallah - 08 March 2019. Israeli security forces deliver the body of a Palestinian girl Samah Mubarak, 16, who was killed after she allegedly attempted to stab an Israeli border policeman at a checkpoint between the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem, according to local media and police reports.
STORYLINE - On Jan 30, Israeli border police opened fire on Samah Zuheir Mubarak, a student from the West Bank city of Ramallah, at the al-Zaeem checkpoint, which separates an illegal Jewish settlement in the West Bank from a neighbourhood that lies in occupied East Jerusalem.
Mubarak's family, based in the Gaza Strip, told local media that Israeli forces killed their daughter in "cold blood".
In a video released by Israeli police, Mubarak is seen walking towards the checkpoint. In another clip, she is seen standing near a vehicle and a group of Israeli forces. After what appears to be a brief exchange, the police officer backs away, Mubarak is shot by Israeli forces at close range and falls to the ground.
Another clip shows Israeli forces searching through her belongings including books and school supplies as they emptied her bag.
Yoram Halevi, Israel's Jerusalem police chief, said the Palestinian girl pulled out a knife and tried to "stab" Israeli soldiers at the al-Zaeem checkpoint, and was shot.
"It's not clear what the background is, what is the reason [behind her arrival to the checkpoint]," he said, adding the incident is being "investigated".
