A Palestinian man was killed Thursday by Jewish settlers near the northern West Bank city of Nablus, according to a Palestinian official.
"Mahmoud Ouda, 48, was shot in the chest while working his land in the village of Kasra near Nablus," Ghassan Daghlas, a Palestinian official in charge of settlement affairs, told Anadolu Agency.
"He was immediately rushed to a hospital in Nablus, where he was soon pronounced dead," Daghlas said.
The Israeli authorities have yet to issue a statement on the incident.
Daghlas said Jewish settlers frequently carried out attacks on Palestinian residents of Kasra and their property.
