Palestinian teenager who died in Israeli prison showed signs of starvation, medical report says.

Walid Ahmad , 17 , died last month after collapsing in Megiddo Prison and striking his head.

Ahmad is the youngest Palestinian prisoner to die in an Israeli prison since the start of the Gaza war.

Ahmad ’s family said he was a healthy high schooler who enjoyed playing soccer before he was taken into custody.

His father, Khalid Ahmad , said his son sat through four brief court hearings by videoconference.

He noticed at one of them, in February , that his son appeared to be in poor health.
