Faris Odeh, Oct 2000
Faris Odeh was a fourteen-year-old Palestinian boy who was shot dead by Israeli military forces in the Gaza Strip while throwing stones in the second month of the Al-Aqsa Intifada. This photo was taken by a photojournalist from the Associated Press on Oct 29, 2000. Ten days later, Odeh was again throwing stones near the Karni crossing when he was shot in the neck by Israeli troops. Odeh and the now famous image of him have since become symbols of the Palestinian resistance to the occupation. Image source: Samer via Flickr.
