Palestinian Children and Teenagers Served as Military Operatives in Gaza War
(Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center) An examination of names of Palestinians killed in the Gaza war revealed several children and teenagers serving as military operatives in the terrorist organizations. The examination also revealed instances in which the ages of Palestinian casualties were falsified by Gaza's Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health. Boys aged 15 and 17 were integrated into the terrorist operative networks; a terrorist operative in his twenties was listed as 13 years of age. Examples of teenagers killed in the fighting include Wasim Rida Salhia, 15, from Khan Yunis, an operative in the Abu Rish Brigades of Fatah, and Anas Qandil, 17, an operative in Islamic Jihad's Jerusalem Brigades.
