The Israeli army did not immediately comment on the incident.
The occupied West Bank has seen escalating attacks by the Israeli army on Palestinians and their property since the beginning of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023.
Since then, Israeli military escalation and attacks by illegal Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank have killed 1,173 Palestinians, wounded 12,666, led to the arrest of about 23,000 and displaced 33,000, according to official Palestinian figures.
Palestinians warn that the attacks are paving the way for Israel to formally annex the occupied West Bank, which would end the possibility of establishing an independent Palestinian state under UN resolutions.
Israel was established in 1948 on lands occupied by armed Zionist groups, and in 1967 it occupied the remaining Palestinian territories, including the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem.
