A 14-year-old boy was released on Tuesday after spending 11 days in detention.

An Israeli military court,Ìýlocated close to theÌý army base in the occupied West Bank, let Athal Al-Azza out on bail, pan-Arab newspaper Al-Quds Al-Arabi reported. Israeli prosecutors will lodgeÌýan appeal against his release, according to Palestinian lawyer Munther Abu Ahmed.

The boy's uncle, Mohammed Al-Azza, said hisÌýdetention is furtherÌýevidence of Israel's targeting of Palestinian children.

"They go after children and stop them from exercising their right to education, their right to freedom of movement, and the practice of their identity," he said.

Israeli forces reportedly assaulted the young boy and then detained him as he travelled to his grandmother's home in the Azza, or Beit Jibrin, refugee camp in Bethlehem on 15 April.

Israeli forces detained Al-Azza atÌýthe entrance of Beit Jibrin and he was interrogated atÌýthe illegal settlement of Gush Etzion.

The teenager was moved more than once while held by Israeli forces before being taken to the Atarot settlement, according to his uncle.

The 14-year-old's release came as relatives and supporters of Al-AzzaÌýheld a demonstrationÌýnear the Ofer military court during Tuesday's session.

Palestinian children play music in solidarity with Athal Al-Azza, a child who is being imprisoned by Israel.

Athal was on his way to his grandmother’s house when Israeli soldiers beat him on the side of the road before bringing him to an Israeli prison where he was tortured.

Children were filmed playing the violin to reflect Al-Azza's passion forÌýmusic and the arts.

Al-Azza was forbidden from talking to his father duringÌýSunday's court session and what appeared to be bruises could be seen on theÌýboy's face, according toÌýAl-Quds Al-Arabi.

"They are putting pressure on him and exposing him toÌýbad psychological conditions," his fatherÌýsaid.

Israel maintains a military judicial system across the occupied West Bank, which targets Palestinian children and adults. Israeli settlers living in the territory illegallyÌýare tried under civilian law.

Israel's use of has been widely condemned as unjust by human rights organisations, particularly whenÌýchildren are involved.
