Two Palestinians have been killed, and another wounded after illegal Israeli settlers opened fire during an attack late on Sunday on the village of Deir Jarir near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, according to Palestinian officials.
The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the victims as Awda Abdul Rahim Awda Farakhna, 53, and Ahmed Adel Rashid Abu Mukh, 26, saying they were killed by Israeli gunfire.
Earlier, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said its crews transported a critically injured man with a gunshot wound to the abdomen to a hospital after the attack, adding that medics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation while transferring him.
It later said another man was taken to the hospital with a live-fire gunshot wound to the knee before announcing that its crews were performing CPR on a third victim, 55, during his transfer to the hospital.
