Seven-year-old killed on school bus in Negev

By Itim

A seven-year-old boy was killed on board his school bus in the Negev on Monday.

The boy, of the Al-Atrash Bedouin tribe, was traveling on a bus near the Bedouin community of Hura.

The accident occurred as the boy pulled his head out of the bus window when he was hit by a truck that came from the opposite direction. He was seriously hurt and died of his wounds a short time later.
