Israeli police Wednesday found the body of a Palestinian teenager, a few hours after he was kidnapped in east Jerusalem, a media report said.

According to officials, the boy was seen being forced into a car in Jerusalem's Beit Hanina earlier Wednesday, BBC reported.

His body was found in a forest in Givat Shaul area in west Jerusalem.

The killing comes a day after funerals were held in the West Bank for the three Jewish seminary students whose bodies were found near the city of Hebron Monday, after they were abducted June 12.

Thousands of people attended the ceremony in Modein, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres.

 

Netanyahu holds Hamas responsible for their deaths and has vowed to strike at the Palestinian Islamist group.
