Police have updated that they opened an investigation into a traffic accident in which a 17-year-old boy was run over and killed near the settlement of Komemiyut in the Kiryat Gat area. According to police, there is no connection between the accident and a protest that ended earlier near the settlement. According to estimates, ultra-Orthodox Jews demonstrated nearby against the autopsies of infants from the Jerusalem disaster - and the teenager was apparently on his way back from the protest when he was run over at a pedestrian crossing.
