case closed

"Nearly a year after two Palestinians from the Silwan neighborhood of east Jerusalem were shot and injured, the Jerusalem District State Prosecutor's Office announced on Friday its decision to close the case against A., the Nahal Haredi soldier who fired the shots.

A. explained that he opened fire at a 16-year-old boy and a 40-year-old man out of a real fear for his life. The State Prosecution explained that they were not able to gather enough evidence for the file."
