Israeli prosecutors have charged an extremist Jewish teenage settler with manslaughter over throwing a rock that killed a Palestinian mother in the northern part of the occupied West Bank in October 2018.
Prosecutors announced the indictment for the 16-year-old teenager from the Mateh Binyamin Regional Council on Thursday, stating that he carried out the attack “under aggravated circumstances,” terming his “intentional vandalism of a vehicle as an act of terror.”
The attack was “based out of an ideological motive of racism and hostility toward Arabs everywhere,” the indictment stated.
