STORYLINE:
On Monday, during a break in the curfew in the West Bank town of Qalqilya, several thousand Palestinians attended the funeral of 9-year-old Shukri Daoud, who died after suffering critical head injuries on June 27, when Israeli soldiers fired on Palestinians who had violated the curfew.
Daoud's body, his head still wrapped in white bandages, was carried through the streets of Qalqilya on a stretcher as mourners chanted anti-Israeli slogans and called for revenge.
Israel admitted its forces "acted improperly" in firing on Daoud and two other children who were also injured on June 27.
Palestinian witnesses and security officials said tanks fired after a curfew break arranged with Israeli authorities to allow high school students to take final exams on June 27.
Apparently after seeing the students on the streets, others headed out to the market, Palestinians said.
Injured when the tanks opened fire, Daoud was taken to an Israeli hospital for treatment, but died of his injuries Monday morning.
