Israeli authorities say Mohammed Abu Khudair was murdered 'because of his nationality'

Israeli police have arrested a group of Jewish extremists in connection with the abduction and murder of Palestinian teenager Mohammed Abu Khudair.

Israeli authorities told the BBC that Khudair was murdered "because of his nationality". An Israeli official speaking on condition of anonymity added: "Apparently the people arrested in relation to the case belong to an extremist Jewish group."

Khudair was abducted in East Jerusalem on Wednesday and his charred remains were discovered hours later in a forest at the edge of the city. Palestinians have maintained that Khudair was killed by far-right Jewish extremists in retaliation for the killing of three Israeli teenagers in the occupied West Bank on 12 June.

A post-mortem examination of Khudair's body revealed that he had been burned alive. The Palestinian teenager's murder sparked four days of riots across the West Bank and spread to more than a dozen Arab towns in Israel.
