HEBRON, September 30, 2025 (WAFA) – The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Human Rights (OCHA) in the occupied Palestinian territory said on Tuesday that Israel's' detention of two Palestinian children in Hebron highlights the daily cruelty faced by Palestinians, including children.
On Monday, Israeli soldiers detained the two brothers, Mohammed and Abdul Fattah Ayman Al-Karki , aged 6 and 8, as they playing football near their home in the Hebron's Old City. A video circulating online shows the two children surrounded by Israeli soldiers and bursting into tears.
The UN Human Rights Office confirmed in a statement that "Palestinian children's rights to life, health, education, freedom of movement, and other rights are violated on a daily basis. Every day, children are killed, injured, or arbitrarily detained by Israeli forces in the occupied Palestinian territory."
It reiterated its call for accountability for such violations, an end to the occupation, and the realization of a two-state solution where Palestine and Israel live side by side.
