Hebron soldier facing manslaughter, not murder charges
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleMilitary prosecutors say the IDF soldier who shot a disarmed Palestinian attacker in the head last week in Hebron is facing manslaughter charges and not murder.
The Maariv newspaper quotes the prosecution as saying, “There have been very significant developments in the past two days,” that led to the decision to change the investigation to manslaughter.
The decision is announced as the still unnamed soldier from the Kfir Brigade appears in military court in Qastina.
