Israeli lady suffers from wounds and a Palestinian adolescent is slain as West Bank violence continues.

Israeli forces shot and killed a 15-year-old Palestinian boy in the Aqbat Jaber refugee camp near the occupied West Bank city of Jericho, Palestinian officials said. Two other people were injured by live ammunition and sent to a hospital in Jericho for treatment. Tensions in Israel and the occupied West Bank have spiraled in the aftermath of recent Israeli police raids on the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem. On Friday, a vehicle hit a group of tourists in Tel Aviv, killing one Italian national, and two sisters, aged 15 and 20, with dual British-Israeli citizenship, were also killed in a shooting attack in the West Bank. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the shooting as a “severe terrorist attack” and instructed Israeli police to mobilize all border police units in reserve and the IDF to mobilize additional forces in face of terrorist attacks.

The Israeli military said it was on high alert, calling up an unspecified number of reservists. On Monday, thousands of Israeli settlers staged a march to Evyatar, an illegal settler outpost in the occupied West Bank that has been a flashpoint for Israel’s settler movement. Far-right Israeli national security minister Itamar Ben-Givr was among the protesters. Clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinians close to the nearby town of Beita led to nearly hundreds of injuries, including 22 people hit by rubber bullets which were fired by Israeli forces. The Israeli Police released a statement saying it “appears that the security forces failed to adhere to the established rules and guidelines” in ensuring freedom of the press. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the march as an “invasion of settler militias, led by ministers from the Israeli occupation government,” and demanded “immediate and quick intervention” by the US government to “stop this madness for which the entire region will pay the price.”
