Israeli settlers kill three Palestinians in Occupied West Bank

Israeli settlers shot and killed three Palestinians on Monday in the Nablus province of the occupied West Bank, Salah Bani Jaber, the mayor of Aqraba, told Reuters.

"About 50 settlers, a large number of them armed, attacked the residents of Khirbet al-Tawil village, east of Aqraba, in the province of Nablus," Jaber said.

"There were Israeli soldiers at the scene who stood idly by watching the settlers," he said.

Gaza's health ministry said that 68 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on the enclave in the past 24 hours, bringing the total to 33,797 killed since 7 October.

Since the start of the war, 76,465 people have been wounded, 94 of them in the past 24 hours.
