A tragic event unfolded in the occupied West Bank, south of Nablus, as a result of a violent encounter between Israeli settlers and Palestinians, leading to the loss of four Palestinian lives, according to the Palestinian health ministry. In unrelated incidents, a Palestinian man lost his life due to Israeli military gunfire near Bethlehem, while a teenager met a similar fate near Hebron, as reported by the same ministry. These recent casualties have contributed to a distressing tally of 29 Palestinian fatalities in the West Bank, stemming from conflicts associated with the ongoing hostilities since Hamas militants initiated an attack on Israel’s southern regions from the besieged Gaza Strip on Saturday.
