Israeli forces detain young Palestinian boys riding their bikes

Mohammad and Owais, Palestinian children who live in the village of Hizma, near Jerusalem in the occupied West Bank, were riding their bikes near their home when Israeli forces detained them. Young Palestinian children are routinely detained by Israeli forces in an arbitrary manner in violation of both Israeli law and international law. Palestinian children below the age of criminal responsibility are detained for shorter periods but the experience can be traumatic. These tactics are meant to intimidate and control Palestinian populations living under an Israeli military occupation with no end in sight. The minimum age of criminal responsibility is 12 years under both Israeli civilian law and Israeli military law. In 1991, Israel ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which stipulates that children should only be deprived of their liberty as a measure of last resort, must not be unlawfully or arbitrarily detained, and must not be subjected to torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
