Israeli Armed Settlers Kill Two Palestinians in West Bank
The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the victims as Awda Abdul Rahim Awda Farakhna, 53, and Ahmed Adel Rashid Abu Mukh, 26, saying they were killed by Israeli gunfire.
The Palestinian news agency, Wafa, said towns and villages across the Ramallah and Al-Bireh governorate have witnessed a surge in attacks by illegal Israeli settlers against Palestinians and their property, including physical assaults, live fire, arson and attacks on agricultural land under the protection of the Israeli army.
The Israeli occupation army and illegal settlers have intensified their attacks in the occupied West Bank since the start of the Gaza genocide in October 2023, martyred at least 1,181 Palestinians, wounding 13,000 and arresting nearly 24,000, according to official Palestinian figures.
