The Zionist Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories (B’Tselem) posted a video on its official website, documenting a Zionist border police officer kicking a Palestinian child while another officer held the boy.

The incident took place in the 29th of June 2012 near the tomb of the Patriarchs, in Hebron’s H2 area. The child, Abd al-Rahman Burqan, who is nine years old, lives with his family near the parking lot used by the Zionist vehicles outside of the Tomb.

The video shows a border police officer ambushing a child from around the corner. As the child walks past, the officer grabs him by the arm and says: “why are you making trouble?”

The officer then drags the child, who is screaming on the ground for a few seconds. A second border police officer then appears and kicks the boy.

The officer then lets the child go. He runs away, and the two border police officers leave the scene as well.

The incident was filmed by a volunteer in B’Tselem’s camera distribution project, from inside his home. The volunteer told B’Tselem that he began to film when he noticed the officer hiding behind the wall.
