An Israeli shot dead a 27-year-old Palestinian man in the village of Masafer Yatta, near Hebron, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.
The IDF said the shooter was a reserve soldier who arrived at the scene after receiving a report of confrontations between settlers and Palestinians. The military said the incident was being investigated.

Earlier this week, two Palestinian brothers were shot dead by an Israeli on Monday near Nablus, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.
There are reports that the military police were investigating a reserve soldier for Monday’s shooting as well.
