Israeli Settler Gunfire Kills Two Palestinian Brothers in West Bank
Two brothers were killed and several wounded in a settler attack amid rising violence linked to the Gaza war, with over 4,700 settler violence cases recorded in 2025.
- On Monday, Israeli settler gunfire killed two brothers in Qaryout, south of Nablus, the Palestinian Health Ministry said, naming the victims as Mohammad Taha Muammar, 52, shot in the head, and Fahim Taha Muammar, 48, shot in the pelvis.
- Since the Gaza war began, attacks in the West Bank have surged, with around 4,723 cases of settler violence in 2025 and three settler-related deaths this year, including Nasrallah Abu Siyam.
- Settlers fired live rounds and burned properties during the assault, videos posted by Palestinian media and B'Tselem show settlers atop a hill aiming rifles while crowds attempted rescues amid ambulance delays and tear gas from Israeli forces.
- The Palestinian Red Crescent treated several injured, including a 15-year-old boy, while wounded were taken to Rafidia/Nablus hospital as Israel's military said it was `looking into` the reports.
- Rights groups say authorities routinely fail to hold settlers accountable, while the U.N. humanitarian office reported last year the highest daily average of five settler attacks since 2006.
