The village of Nil'in located near Ramallah is the scene of almost daily nonviolent actions against the Israeli wall being built on the villagers lands.
Amira was among the villagers who took part in the funeral of Ahmad Mousa, the 11 years old Palestinian boy that was killed by the Israeli army gunfire on Tuesday night.
Witnesses said that Israeli soldiers stormed the village and took positions there, and as soon as the funeral was finished on Wednesday afternoon local youth clashed with the Israeli soldiers. Three were injured, among them Amira.
Younis, the cousin of Amira, told IMEMC during a phone interview that Amira was going to visit him at his house; Israeli soldiers chasing local youth opened fire at him and injured him. Younis assured IMEMC that Amira was not taking part in the stone throwing.
Local sources said that the villagers plan to organize a demonstration on Thursday to protest the killings and the destruction of their lands.
Un jeune de 17 ans a été descendu de sang froid par l'armée israélienne dans le village de Nilin, le 30 Juillet vers les 17.30. Apres les funerailles de Ahmad tué la veille par balles réelles, des jeunes sont allés jeter des pierres contre les soldats israéliens. Les soldats les ont poursuivi avec une jeep et les jeunes se sont echappés. Youssef se rendait chez son oncle. La jeep militaire s'est mise à son niveau, et un soldat a tiré de la jeep située à environ 8 metres de Youssef. Il a reçu deux balles en caoutchouc dans la tete, une a traversé et l'autre est restée dans son cerveau. L'ambulance n'a pas pu rentrer dans le village et des jeunes ont été obligés de porter Youssef à travers les champs. Il est dans le coma dans l'hopital à Ramallah, son cerveau ne fonctionne plus. Il va etre surment declaré mort dans les prochaines heures. En 72 heures ce sont deux mineurs qui ont été victimes d'un usage completement disproportionné de la force de la part de l'armée israélienne qui semble avoir decidé de casser l'esprit de résistance de Nilin à tout prix.
