Deadly Attack in Occupied West Bank: Palestinian Gunman Kills Israeli and Injures Another

A suspected Palestinian gunman killed an Israeli woman and wounded a man in the occupied West Bank, while Israeli military raids triggered fighting with Palestinians south of Nablus, leaving eight Palestinians wounded. The violence comes amid a sharp escalation in recent months involving Palestinian militants, Israeli security forces, and radical Jewish settlers. Reprisals by settlers against Palestinians have also heightened tensions. The Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade claimed responsibility for the attack, calling it a "natural response to the crimes of the occupation." The West Bank has been on edge since another Palestinian attack killed an Israeli father and son two days ago.
