Child exploitation by Palestinian militant groups
Use of child suicide bombers by Palestinian militant groups
As part of the Arab–Israeli conflict, especially during the Second Intifada from 2000 to 2005, Palestinian militant groups used children for suicide bombings. Minors were sometimes used as messengers and couriers, and according to Israeli sources as fighters. The involvement of children in armed conflict was condemned by international human rights organizations. Amnesty International noted, "Palestinian armed groups have repeatedly shown total disregard for... the right to life, by deliberately targeting Israeli civilians and by using Palestinian children in armed attacks," and that, "Children are susceptible to recruitment by manipulation... including a desire to avenge relatives or friends killed by the Israeli army."
