Israeli forces killed at least three Palestinians on Tuesday during intensified raids across the occupied West Bank. The victims, Abdullah Mohammad Omar Jalmana (27), Qais Ibrahim Mohammad al-Baytawi (21), and Ahmed Azmi Arif Nashti (29), were shot at close range in agricultural lands near Kafr Qud, and their bodies were reportedly seized by the military. Local residents also reported an Israeli airstrike in the area following the shootings.

The Palestinian resistance condemned the killings as part of a systematic campaign of executions and ongoing violence in the West Bank. Authorities highlighted that this escalation forms part of Israel’s broader genocidal war, aimed at subjugating the Palestinian population and undermining political unity. Calls were made for increased Palestinian resistance and solidarity against these attacks.

In a related incident, at least five Palestinians were affected by tear gas after Israeli settlers targeted a family home in As Samu’, southeast West Bank. Since October 2023, over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed and more than 10,000 injured in the West Bank amid ongoing military and settler violence. UN reports note that Palestinian properties have been attacked over 2,400 times in the past two years, displacing more than 3,000 people.
