Israel says it will test the bullet that killed journalist Shireen Abu Akleh to determine whether one of its soldiers shot her, a day after Palestine handed it over to a US coordinator
The general prosecutor for the Palestinian Authority said that the American coordinator had guaranteed that the Israeli side would not take part in the investigation.
"The test will not be American. The test will be an Israeli test, with an American presence throughout," Israeli military spokesman Brigadier-General Ran Kochav said on Sunday. Akram al Khatib, general prosecutor for the Palestinian Authority, said the test would take place at the US Embassy in Jerusalem.
