Swapping stones for guns: the teenage Palestinians drawn into an old conflict (dubbed)

Warning: This report contains images viewers may find distressing – including dead bodies.

Now in the occupied West Bank, it’s been the deadliest year for nearly two decades.

Young Palestinian men – frustrated by a hardening Israeli occupation, and disillusioned with their own older political leaders are forming new militant outfits.

They’ve gained large followings on social media – but many of their members are linked to groups considered terrorists in the West.

With a new right wing Israeli government about to assume power, more violence looks set to flare.
