At least one Palestinian was killed and five others wounded in an "Israeli" settler shooting attack on the town of Aqraba, located north of the occupied West Bank, according to Roya’s correspondent.

A man in his thirties sustained critical injuries after being shot in the chest. Resuscitation efforts are currently underway as he is being transported to the hospital.

Two other young men, including a 24-year-old, were also wounded after being shot in the leg. They have been transferred to the hospital for treatment.

In a related incident, a 50-year-old man was shot in the hand and is also receiving medical care, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent.

This incident is part of a broader surge in "Israeli" settler violence across the occupied West Bank in recent months, drawing increased concern from international observers and humanitarian groups.
