The raid followed a house search and sheep theft, and ambulances were blocked from reaching the wounded, Palestinian officials said.
- On Sunday, Israeli settlers and troops raided Deir Jarir, killing Ahmad Adel Abu Mukho, 26, and Odeh Abdul Rahim Odeh Farakhneh, 53, according to the Palestinian Authority.
- During the raid, settlers stole sheep and fired on residents who intervened, while The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported troops blocked ambulances and opened fire on one vehicle.
- According to the Palestinian Authority's Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission, at least 50 Palestinians have been killed by settlers since October 2023, including 15 this year.
- Independent International Commission of Inquiry chair Srinivasan Muralidhar stated last month that settler violence is the direct outcome of Israeli policies providing financial and military support.
- Settlers now carry out near-daily attacks across the West Bank, including arson and forced displacement, often under military protection in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
