An illegal Israeli settler killed on Saturday two Palestinian brothers after ramming them with his car near Nablus in the occupied West Bank, before fleeing the scene, Palestinian media reported.

Wafa news agency quoted Zakaria Fayala, a spokesperson for Al-Quds Governorate, as saying that Mohammad (28) and Muhannad Mutair (24), from the Qalandia refugee camp, had stopped their car by the side of the road near the Zatara military checkpoint, south of Nablus, to fix a flat tire before an Israeli settler directly drove his car directly into them, instantly killing Mohammad and seriously injuring Muhannad. The latter was rushed to a hospital for treatment but was pronounced dead shortly after.

Reacting to the crime, Hamas Spokesperson Hazem Qassem said Israeli settlers "are escalating their aggression against our people," pointing out that the formation of a new right-wing Israeli government has apparently encouraged settlers to increase their crimes against Palestinians.

Qassem considered that "this crime is a new episode in the series of Zionist terrorism under the protection of the occupation police and army," underscoring that "this crime must be answered by increasing the resistance in the West Bank."

It is noteworthy that on Saturday, UN experts named the occupied West Bank as having seen the deadliest series of events in 2022 at the hands of Israeli settlers and the IOF. 

According to the UN, 150 Palestinians have been murdered in the occupied West Bank this year by the IOF.

"Armed and masked Israeli settlers are attacking Palestinians in their homes, attacking children on their way to school, destroying property and burning olive groves, and terrorising entire communities with complete impunity," the UN experts pointed out as they listed the crimes that "Israel" has been committing against the Palestinians.

"Disturbing evidence of Israeli forces frequently facilitating, supporting and participating in settler attacks, makes it difficult to discern between Israeli settler and State violence," the experts said.
