A new report shows Israeli forces are targeting Palestinian children in the occupied territories with live bullets.
The global movement for the defense of children in Palestine has documented 30 cases since January this year, in which the children were shot with live bullets.
It says 29 children were shot while attending peaceful marches in the West Bank.
Another one was shot by Israeli settlers in occupied Jerusalem al-Quds.
The movement says the Israeli soldiers have been using the excessive force with prior conviction that they will get away with impunity.
It has also criticized Israel's own regulation that allows forces to use live ammunition in cases of mortal threats.
The movement says evidence prove that the child victims were not posing such threats when targeted.
