Three Palestinians have been killed in a spate of settler attacks in the West Bank, according to the Palestinian Authority (PA) Health Ministry in Ramallah.

According to PA officials, a large number of settlers took part in the raids, with some hurling rocks at local residents.

Photos from the villahe of al-Mughayyir showed cars on fire, while CCTV from the towns affected revealed groups of masked men throwing rocks and destroying property. And footage from Kafr Malik showed that a number of homes had been torched.

A PA statement reported three deaths as the result of shootings, with some Palestinian media outlets claiming that IDF soldiers fired on civilians, citing eyewitnesses.
