Ahmed Abu Hashih (18) disappeared from his family in the eastern Beit Hanoun region on April 21st. His family believed that he had been killed somewhere in the north-eastern border region, the Israeli-imposed 'buffer zone' where Israeli soldiers routinely shoot at Palestinian farmers and residents. Since then, his parents and others have searched, unsuccessfully, for his body, fearing the worst.

On June 14th his family, along with members of The Local Initiative from Beit Hanoun, and volunteers from the International Solidarity Movement - Gaza Strip went to the border region east of Beit Hanoun to search for Abu Hashish's body. A local shepherd had reported a strong smell like that of a corpse, believing it may have been the missing teen.

While searching for Abu Hashih, the group came under Israeli army fire, from IOF soldiers in jeeps along the Green Line. When they located his body, the Israeli shooting became more intense and was accompanied by at least two sound grenades.

During the recovery of the murdered teen's body, the ISM continued to communicate via bullhorn to the Israeli soldiers shooting at them that everyone was unarmed, that they were searching for a body and would leave after locating it.

As the grace of life is denied Palestinians, so too is the grace of burial often denied them.
