Israeli forces kill Palestinian family of four in West Bank, Palestinian Health Authorities say

Israeli forces killed four ​Palestinians, including a mother, father ‌and two children, as they ​drove in the ⁠occupied West Bank on Sunday (March 15, 2026), Palestinian health authorities said.

A mother and ‌father, ages 35 and 37, and two ‌of their children, ages 5 ‌and ⁠7, were shot in ⁠the head in the village of Tammun, while two of their ​other children sustained ‌injuries, Palestinian health authorities.

The Israeli military said it was looking into the reports.

The ‌Palestinian Health Ministry also ​said one Palestinian was killed in an attack by ⁠settlers overnight.

Israeli settlers in the West Bank are ‌taking advantage of curbs on movement imposed during the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran to attack Palestinians, with military roadblocks preventing ambulances from reaching ‌victims quickly, rights groups and medics ​say.

Settlers have killed at least five Palestinians in ⁠the West Bank since the Iran ⁠war began on February 28, according to ‌the Palestinian Health Ministry.
