  • Hadeel al-Hashlamon (18) was shot 10 times[524] in Hebron, lacked medical assistance for a half hour, and expired several hours later, at 4 p.m.[524] in Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem. Accounts are contradictory. Two bystanders witnessed the event: a Brazilian human rights activist, Marcel, and a Tel Rumeida resident, Fawaz Abu Aysha.[524] The Westerner said that she appeared to be trying to open her purse.[525] According to Israeli spokesmen, she was shot while trying to stab Israeli soldiers. A metal detector is said to have gone off when she passed the "Kikar Hashoter" checkpoint by the entrance of Hebron's al-Shuhada street. Soldiers claim she refused to heed a warning shot, and was shot in the legs when she drew a knife. When she attempted to raise the knife again, she was shot again. A photo on Palestinian media shows her kneeling as a soldier aims his rifle at her. The Israel account is that she hadn't at that point yet pulled out a knife. Fawaz Abu Aysha said the woman did not understand the Hebrew shouted at her, that as they shot at her feet she seemed in a state of shock, that she moved back when a gate was opened to allow her to retreat, a small gate inside the checkpoint so that she could back away from the soldiers. At the time of the shooting a metre high barrier stood before her and the checkpoint soldiers. Other soldiers rushed in, shot her in the left, then the right leg, and then fired 6/7 bullets into her chest and stomach.[521][526] Amnesty International judged it to be an example of an extrajudicial killing, while B'Tselem said arresting the woman was an option and the killing was disproportionate.
