US Edition‘Why are you not preventing settler terrorism’: Palestinians call out IDF following beating death of American man
WEST BANK, JUL 14 – The 20-year-old American-Palestinian was fatally beaten amid rising settler violence that has seen over 2,100 attacks in six months, prompting calls for U.S. investigation and Israeli military action.
- On Friday, 20-year-old American citizen Sayfollah Musallet died after being assaulted by Israeli settlers in Sinjil, West Bank, while visiting family.
- The killing occurred amid rising violence and settler attacks in the West Bank following the Israel-Hamas war that began on October 7, 2023.
- Settlers blocked ambulances from reaching Musallet for three hours, and despite COGAT officers eventually escorting an ambulance, he died before arriving at the hospital.

- The family and advocacy groups are calling on the US government for an investigation while the Israeli military is conducting its own inquiry into Musallet’s death.
