Clashes in the West Bank Kill a 19-Year-Old Palestinian-American, Palestinian Officials Say
- Late Wednesday night, the Palestinian Health Ministry said clashes in the Israeli-occupied West Bank killed 19-year-old Nasrallah Muhammad Jamal Abu Siyam, a Palestinian-American, in Mukhmas, north of Jerusalem.
- Rights groups say authorities routinely fail to prosecute settlers, and Yesh Din, Israeli rights group, reports investigations have plummeted under Itamar Ben-Gvir, National Security Minister; in a rare move earlier this week, Israeli prosecutors announced plans to charge a settler.
- The Israeli military said soldiers responded to a violent confrontation and attempted to disperse a riot, adding that suspected shooters fired at several Palestinians evacuated for medical treatment.
- On Thursday, the U.S. Embassy did not respond to requests, as violence from extremist settlers in the West Bank has soared in recent years.
- More than 3.4 million Palestinians and 700,000 Israelis live in the occupied West Bank and east Jerusalem, and the international community views settlement construction as illegal and a peace obstacle.
