In an escalating cycle of violence, Israeli forces shot at three Palestinians in the West Bank on Sunday, resulting in one fatality. According to the Israeli military, the Palestinians were throwing rocks at cars in the occupied territory. The Palestinian Red Crescent confirmed one death and another person wounded.

In Hebron, a tragic incident unfolded when Israeli soldiers opened fire on a car approaching them, killing a Palestinian teenager and an uninvolved bystander.
