Four Palestinians and one Israeli have been killed in a shooting in the northern West Bank, health officials said on Friday. Several more people were seriously wounded.The serious incident in the Palestinian village of Tell, near Nablus, is the deadliest attack in the West Bank this year and has the potential to lead to a series of reprisals between Israeli-backed settlers and local Palestinian communities.A Palestinian resident of the village said Israeli settlers had come to the village early on Friday morning and that they were soon joined by the military. The Israeli military said it had come to the aid of Israeli hikers.The circumstances of the shooting were not immediately clear, but video of the attack posted online has shown multiple people who appear to be Palestinians on the ground in a field near the village who appear to have been shot.The Palestinian health ministry in Ramallah said the four Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces. All four were from the same family and have the same last name, according to people from the village.Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue services did not say who had killed the Israeli, a man in his 30s. Social media channels run by settler communities said he was from the Havat Gilad settlement in the West Bank.Violence in the Israeli-occupied West Bank has flared in recent days.
