Two Palestinian brothers were fatally shot by an Israeli reserve soldier near Nablus in the northern West Bank, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. The Israeli military said the soldier arrived after reports of confrontations between settlers and Palestinians and is investigating the incident. The United Nations has noted a sharp rise in settler violence and displacement of Palestinians in areas including Masafer Yatta over the past two years.
