US says it is aware of Palestinian American’s killing by Israeli forces in West Bank

The US State Department says that it was aware of the killing by Israeli forces of a Palestinian American teenager in the West Bank and was seeking more information about the nature of what happened on the ground.

A State Department spokesperson makes the comments to reporters in response to a question on the killing of Omar Mohammad Rabea, 14, and the shooting of two other teenagers.

The IDF says troops opened fire on suspects throwing rocks at motorists on a highway in the area of Turmus Aya, endangering the lives of civilians.
