Israeli forces have killed a Palestinian couple and two of their children as they drove in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian health authorities, with the Israeli military saying the incident is under review.

Ali Khaled Bani Odeh, 37, his 35-year-old wife Waad, and two of their children – Mohammad and Othman, aged five and seven, respectively – were shot in the head in the village of Tammun on Sunday. Two of their other children were wounded by shrapnel, according to Palestinian health authorities.

Speaking to the Reuters news agency at the hospital, Khaled, 12, one of the two surviving boys, said he heard his mother crying, his father praying, but no voice of any of his other brothers before silence prevailed after shots sprayed the car.

“We came under direct fire; we didn’t know the source. Everyone in the car was ⁠martyred, except my brother Mustafa and me,” the boy said.

He said soldiers, who ⁠pulled him out of the vehicle before beating him, shouted: “We killed dogs.”

    I would definitely not be happy if Newsome was the Dem nominee. He’s less of a Democrat than the Clintons. He was once married to Kimberly Guilfoyle, before she became Don Jrs concubine, so that should tell you all you need to know about all of them.

    But if Newsome was the nominee, and my only other choice was a MAGA, then I’d vote for Newsome, only because even he would be miles better than ANY MAGA.

    I don’t ask you to lead the revolution but when the time comes will you fall in line or will you fight against your fellow workers?

    I’m not sure what you mean by this, but I don’t have an issue with my fellow workers, unless they are unapologetic MAGAs. I would never turn on my fellow workers. We need to stand in solidarity against the slave-owners.
