Israeli forces shoot two Palestinians during settler attacks near Ramallah

Israeli forces fired live ammunition during a settler attack near al-Mughayyir village in the occupied West Bank, resulting in at least two Palestinians being wounded, according to Al Jazeera. The incident occurred as Palestinians confronted settlers who were attacking homes west of the village, northeast of Ramallah. Israeli forces were allegedly enabling the attacks by restricting access to the village and its surrounding area to Israeli settlers only, as reported by the village council head Amin Abu Aliya.

The Palestine Red Crescent stated that their teams treated four Palestinians wounded by live fire in al-Mughayyir, with the wounded taken to hospital for treatment. Haaretz, citing local reports, confirmed that the shooting was carried out by Israeli settlers.
