TL;DR

Two Palestinians were killed in al-Mughayyir village in the West Bank during an attack by Jewish settlers and Israeli soldiers. The victims included Aws al-Naasan, 14, and Jihad Abu Naim, 32. Palestinian officials blamed settler gunfire and alleged coordination with the Israeli army, while Israel said troops dispersed a violent confrontation after a report of stones thrown at an Israeli car. The incident fits a wider pattern of rising settler violence in 2026, with UN figures showing dozens killed, hundreds injured, and thousands displaced across the West Bank.
