Autopsy for Palestinian killed in alleged Israeli war crime
 

An autopsy was due to be performed on Wednesday on the body of a Palestinian teenager killed last month in an incident that a human rights group said might constitute an Israeli war crime. Palestinian medics have said that Nadim Nuwara, 17, and Muhammad Abu Thahr, 16, were shot dead by Israeli troops using live ammunition on May 15 as they took part in an anti-Israel demonstration in the occupied West Bank. The Israeli military said its forces fired only rubber-coated bullets that day, and that an investigation of their deaths was still under way. Palestinian officials said an autopsy would be performed on Nuwara's body on Wednesday, at his family's request.
