  In a similar incident, Israeli troops operating in Tamoun, in the northern Jordan valley, opened fire on a vehicle travelling through the village on 15 March, killing a Palestinian couple and two of their children. The victims were identified as Ali Bani Odeh, 38, his wife, Waad Bani Odeh, 36, and their sons Othman, six, and Mohammad, five.

  According to the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, soldiers removed two other children from the vehicle, Khaled, 11, and Mustafa, eight, both of whom suffered minor shrapnel injuries. The organisation said the troops then subjected Khaled to a violent interrogation at the scene.

  B’Tselem said the military initially prevented ambulances from reaching the area and allowed medical teams access only after a delay. The organisation added that soldiers later confiscated the family’s vehicle, which it said was riddled with bullet holes.
