A video of 2 Israeli soldiers bullying an eight year old girl has surfaced online. The video was recorded by a member of the Israeli human rights group B’tselem in July, but has just been published on Youtube.
The video shows the soldier approaching the young girl, who was riding her bike and playing with her young friends. The soldier then stepped on the bike to allow any movement, while the girl in a terrified voice told the officer, "I swear, it's mine".
The officer did not let go, and instead make the young girl cry and go back home.
The officer then took the girl's bike and threw it into a nearby bush, an act a lot of online users have condemned and said the soldier is a coward, and probably does not have a conscience to have brought tears to a young girl in that way.
There has been bout of tension ever since Israeli forces introduced restrictions on the entry of Palestinian worshippers into the al-Aqsa Mosque compound in East Jerusalem al-Quds in August 2015.
