Israeli gets life for Palestinian teen’s killing

A Jerusalem court has handed a life sentence to the main attacker in the killing of a Palestinian teenager in 2014 whose death helped spark a chain of events that led to that year’s Gaza war.

The court sentenced Yosef Haim Ben David, aged 30, to life plus 20 years.

The state prosecutor said the damage he caused Israel and the Palestinian teen’s family is “irreparable.”
