Funeral of Palestinian activist: Israel returned Awdah Hathaleen's body after 10 days

Israeli authorities have released the body of Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen, 10 days after he was killed by an Israeli settler. It followed a hunger strike by a group of women demanding the right to bury the 31-year-old. The settler who shot Awdah in the occupied West Bank last month was briefly placed under house arrest and then released.
