The Israeli police killing of
Ya'akub Abu Al-Qi'an
THE DEATH
One year ago, on the night of 18 January 2017, heavily-armed Israeli paramilitary police forces entered the Bedouin village of Umm al-Hiran in the country's southern desert region in order to demolish homes. Just before dawn broke, officers opened fire on 50-year-old math teacher Ya'akub Abu Al-Qi'an as he was driving his white jeep through the village. Ya'akub was seriously wounded by police gunfire and he lost control of his jeep, running over and killing police officer Erez Levy.
Israeli officers on the scene prevented paramedics from reaching Ya'akub and administering emergency medical treatment.
