"In September 2009, in response to documentation of the prosecution
of children as young as 12 in adult military courts, Israel established a
juvenile military court. It is understood that this is the first and only
juvenile military court in operation in the world. In fact, it uses the same
facilities and court staff as the adult military court." "Each year
approximately 700 Palestinian children aged 12 to 17, the great majority of them
boys, are arrested, interrogated and detained by Israeli army, police and
security agents. In the past 10 years, an estimated 7,000 children have been
detained, interrogated, prosecuted and/or imprisoned within the Israeli military
justice system – an average of two children each day." (thanks Amir)
