West Bank: Two Palestinians killed in separate military and settler incidents

West Bank violence Israeli settler attacks Jenin military raid Sa’ir shooting Palestinian casualties

Two Palestinians were killed in separate incidents across the West Bank on Friday involving Israeli military forces and settlers.

In Jenin, 58-year-old Fathi Zidan Hazem, a retired colonel in the Palestinian National Security Forces, was shot dead by Israeli forces during a raid on his home. The Israeli military stated that Hazem, who was previously sought by authorities following a 2022 attack by his son, attempted to stab a soldier during the operation. Witnesses reported that the shooting occurred in front of his family.

In the southern West Bank, 17-year-old Karim Sanad Raja Shalaldeh was killed by gunfire during an attack by Israeli settlers in the town of Sa’ir. Local reports indicate that settlers stormed the Khirbet Hamrush area, opened fire on residents, and set fire to a home. A 70-year-old man was also wounded during the confrontation. The Israeli military stated that troops were dispatched to the area after Palestinians threw rocks at civilians.

Additional reports indicate widespread violence across the territory, including injuries to at least 19 Palestinians from various military raids and settler assaults. These incidents include tear gas inhalation in Tubas and physical assaults in Masafer Yatta and Arrabeh.
