Israel demotes 2 officers over Palestinians' deaths
Two senior Israeli officers were reprimanded and a sergeant demoted over the killing of four Palestinians during clashes in the West Bank in March, the military said yesterday.
"The investigation shows that the incident could have ended differently and with better results and seemingly could have avoided causing harm to civilians," the statement said.
Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Gabi Ashkenazi summoned two regional commanders and reprimanded them for the conduct of the forces under their command in the West Bank in two separate incidents, it said.
