IOA hands over body of slain Palestinian in Nablus

The Palestine Red Crescent Society affirmed that its staff received Muflih's body after being held for 27 days in Israeli morgues.

Muflih, 22, was killed after an Israeli trooper fired at him at point-blank range on the main road of Huwara town south of the West Bank city of Nablus.

According to a video that went viral, a fight between the IOF soldier and the Palestinian young man was reported prior to the shooting.

Hebrew sources claimed that a stabbing attack was carried out and resulted in lightly injuring two soldiers.

Eyewitnesses denounced the Israeli claims as completely false, pointing out that the IOF trooper attempted to arrest the Palestinian young man and when the youth slapped the soldier in the face he assaulted him and shot him at point-blank range.
