Original Note:
Stone-throwing seems like a light offense but has killed multiple civilians. It often takes place on the road, causing fatal crashes. During the 1st Intifada, at least 14 Israelis were killed by stone-throwing. https://www.haaretz.com/2011-09-25/ty-article/fatal-west-bank-car-crash-caused-by-palestinian-stone-throwing/0000017f-dc22-db5a-a57f-dc6abe9f0000 https://www.jns.org/israels-foes-finally-admit-that-rocks-can-kill/ https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/jewish-baby-injured-by-rock-throwing-palestinian-in-jerusalem-372031 https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/palestinians-stone-israeli-car-which-crashes-jerusalem-seethes-2021-05-10/ There are juvenile military courts in other countries. https://www.hrw.org/news/2012/03/27/egypt-children-trial https://www.hrw.org/sites/default/files/related_material/Omar%20Khadr%20Q%26A.pdf
