Israel army says friendly fire may have killed settler during West Bank clash

JERUSALEM: An Israeli military probe published Wednesday said that friendly fire may have killed an Israeli settler during a deadly clash with Palestinians in the occupied West Bank last month. The violence in the Palestinian village of Tell in the northern West Bank in late July left four Palestinians and two Israelis dead, prompting the army to launch an investigation. “The findings … determined that it is not possible to establish conclusively the cause of CPT (Res.) Benayahu Mellet’s fatal injury,” the army report read.
