The unnamed solider can be seen in a tense stand-off with the veiled young woman, thought to be Hadeel al-Hashlamon, an 18-year-old Palestinian student. The confrontation, which involved at least one other soldier (top right), came in Hebron on the West Bank Tuesday after, where tensions have been at fever-point for days as major religious festivals in both the Jewish and Muslim calendars approach. Moments after the image was photographed, al-Hashlamon was shot. Family members were later pictured (bottom right) grieving over her dead body, which was rolled through the streets as her relatives mourned. The killing came after Israeli authorities banned young Muslim men from the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam's third-holiest site, and implemented a travel ban over the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.
