Military says soldiers are still directed to first try to make an arrest without using deadly force, but experts raise questions about legality of new guideline. The Israeli military has revised its open-fire policies for the West Bank, officially allowing troops to shoot at Palestinians who had thrown rocks or firebombs at cars, even if the assailants no longer present an immediate threat. The policy change was first reported by Israel’s Kan broadcaster on Sunday night, and was later confirmed to The Times of Israel by a military spokesperson, who said it had been in effect for the past month or so. While the spokesperson described the change as a corrective to a situation that allowed suspects to evade justice, experts raised questions over the legality of using lethal force against a person who no longer poses a threat. https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-begins-allowing-troops-to-shoot-at-fleeing-rock-throwers
