In the occupied West Bank, a seven-month-old child was killed when Israeli soldiers opened fire on a vehicle carrying a family, with the infant's parents also wounded in the exchange. The circumstances that prompted the shooting remain unresolved, as they so often do in a landscape where military presence and civilian life are in constant, uneasy proximity. The death of a child who had not yet lived a year places this incident within a long and sorrowful record of non-combatants bearing the weight of a conflict they did not choose.
