Two Palestinian teenagers shot dead during settler incursion in West Bank village

Saturday, 5 September 2026, 06:48 · 1 min read

Omar al-Naasan and Khalil Abu Alia, both teenagers, were killed this week when Israeli settlers and soldiers entered al-Mughayyir (a Palestinian village south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank), with funerals held for the pair shortly after. The Israeli military said troops opened fire on what it described as participants in a violent riot, and stated that the incident is under review. The deaths come amid near-daily settler attacks in the area and add to a broader toll that the United Nations says has surpassed 80 Palestinians killed by Israeli forces or settlers in the West Bank since the start of the year.
