The body of Yaqub Musa Abu al-Kayan is carried to the burial site near the Bedouin village of Umm al-Hiran, on Jan. 24, 2017. Israeli authorities said a policeman and a civilian were killed during clashes following the arrival of police forces intent on demolishing a Bedouin village in southern Israel on Jan. 18. The incident occurred before dawn, as hundreds of police officers arrived in the village of Umm al-Hiran, a village not recognized by Israeli authorities, in order to evacuate its residents as part of a government plan to build a Jewish town in its place. A police official informed Xinhua that the civilian was shot by police forces after ramming his vehicle into a group of security personnel. Yaqub Musa Abu al-Kayan's death sparked outrage and protest in the Arab society in Israel, as eyewitness accounts denied the attempted attack against police forces. (Xinhua/Muammar Awad)
