OCCUPIED-AL-QUDS: Israel on Thursday charged a police officer with "reckless homicide" for shooting dead an unarmed Palestinian man with autism in al-Quds Old City last year, the justice ministry said.
Iyad Hallak, 32, was killed in May 2020 while walking to his special needs school in Israeli-annexed east al-Quds, after officers thought he was armed. Hallak’s family has said he had the mental age of an eight-year-old, and witnesses said Hallak panicked after being shouted at by police.
