The Israel Defense Forces believes with “high probability” that a Border Police sniper accidentally shot and killed 16-year-old Jana Zakarna during clashes in Jenin last night.
The IDF says she was apparently close to gunmen on a rooftop who were shooting at soldiers during the raid in the northern West Bank city.
“The claim that security forces shot at uninvolved people on purpose is unfounded and baseless,” the IDF adds.
