George Noll, who heads the US office of Palestinian Affairs in Jerusalem recently visited the family of Tawfic Abdel Jabbar to offer his condolences after the 17-year-old Palestinian-American was killed on Friday in the West Bank, White House National Security council spokesman John Kirby says during a press briefing.
Jabbar was shot in an incident in which an off-duty policeman, a soldier and a civilian opened fire in circumstances under investigation.
The US has expressed its “devastation” over Jabbar’s death and has demanded an investigation into the matter.
