A 16-year-old Palestinian stabbed to death a Zionist soldier at Afula’s bus station in the Northern occupied territories on Wednesday morning in a reaction against jailing a number his relatives.

Zionist’s northern police commander, Ronny Attia, said in remarks broadcast on Israel Radio that the Palestinian descends from the West Bank town of Jenin, and that he stabbed a soldier in a bus.

Israeli paramedics transferred the Zionist soldier to the Emek Medical Center in Afula in a serious condition. He underwent surgery, but eventually died, succumbing to his wounds, the Jerusalem Post reported.

The boy told to the Zionist troops that avenging a number of his relatives was behind stabbing the Israeli soldier.

The Palestinian was taken to the hospital because he was tortured when he tried to escape from the bus.
