Thousands of Palestinians turned out Friday to mourn a seven-year-old Palestinian boy who died, his father said, while being chased by Israeli troops on Thursday – an account rejected by the Israeli army but which prompted the US State Department to call for an investigation.

After the company commander left, the tragic event happened,” Hecht said, adding that a “thorough inquiry is happening within the brigade.” The US State Department said it was “heartbroken” over Suleiman’s death. “The US is heartbroken to learn of the death of an innocent Palestinian child,” State Department principal deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel said Thursday.
