Israeli forces kill Palestinian parents, two children, in West Bank, medics say
Israeli forces killed a Palestinian family of four in the West Bank, with conflicting reports on the incident and rising violence, UN data shows.
- Israeli forces shot dead four Palestinians on Sunday in Tammun, a village in the northern occupied West Bank, Palestinian health authorities said.
- The Israeli military said forces were conducting an arrest targeting 'Palestinians wanted for involvement in 'terrorist' activity' and claimed a vehicle accelerated toward troops, prompting gunfire, which killed four Palestinians in Tammun on Sunday.
- The Palestinian health ministry said Khaled, 12, told Reuters 'We came under direct fire, we didn't know the source. Everyone in the car was martyred, except my brother Mustafa and me', and survivors reported soldiers beat injured children.
- The Israeli military said it is investigating the shooting while the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the killings and rights groups said movement curbs delayed Palestinian Red Crescent ambulances last week.
- More broadly, violence has risen sharply in the West Bank since the Hamas attacks, with at least 1,045 Palestinians killed and 18 recorded in 2026, including eight by settlers.
