‘I had hoped to be dead’: Palestinian man used as a 'human shield' by Israeli forces


Al Jazeera has spoken to an injured Palestinian who appeared to be used as a human shield by Israeli forces in Jenin in the occupied West Bank.

Mujahed Abadi was strapped to the front of an Israeli military vehicle on Saturday which drove past several ambulances. He says Israeli forces continued to beat him while he was injured. Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim is in Ramallah in the occupied West Bank for more.
