Israeli Forces Kill Palestinian Boy in West Bank, Health Ministry Says
- On Monday, Israeli forces killed 14-year-old Palestinian Moataz Iyad Daghlas during a military raid in the village of Burqa, northwest of Nablus, wounding two other teenagers in the incident.
- The operation occurred amid surging West Bank violence, which the United Nations has described as reaching an "unprecedented level" following the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel.
- According to the IDF, troops opened fire after identifying suspects preparing to throw stones, while the Palestine Red Crescent Society reported forces prevented ambulance crews from reaching wounded and detained three medics.
- On Tuesday, the Palestinian Ministry of Health identified the victim and stated Israeli authorities are withholding his body, while two other teenagers aged 16 and 17 sustained gunshot wounds to the abdomen, pelvis, and hand.
- Data from the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project suggests 2026 is on track to be the most violent year for settler-related incidents in a decade, with the Palestinian Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission documenting 12,506 attacks since October 2023.
