Israeli settlers shot and killed three Palestinians in the occupied West Bank over the weekend, amid a surge in attacks since the start of the war on Iran.
A fourth Palestinian died after inhaling tear gas fired by Israeli forces during one of the settler assaults.
The first incident took place on Saturday in the Wadi al-Rakhim area of Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron, when settlers opened fire at two brothers from close range.
Amir Mohammad Shanaran was killed in the attack, while his brother was critically wounded, according to Palestinian media.
The two men were reportedly shot near their home by settlers from the nearby settlement of Susiya, which is built on Palestinian land.
On Sunday morning, settlers attacked Palestinians in the town of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, assaulting residents and opening fire.
Two men identified by the Palestinian health ministry as Thaer Farouq Hmayel, 24, and Farea Jawdat Hamayel, 57, were killed by gunfire.
