IDF reservist probed by military police over suspected link to alleged deadly settler attack

An IDF reservist was questioned by the Military Police for his suspected involvement in an incident in the West Bank yesterday during which two Palestinians were allegedly killed by settlers.

The military says the reservist detained this morning, who is a resident of the area and a member of an IDF regional reserve defense unit, was released after interrogation.

“Further information cannot be detailed at this stage,” the IDF says.

During the incident yesterday in Sinjil, several other Israelis and Palestinians were detained by police, the military adds.

A police spokesman tells The Times of Israel the reservist fired into the air during the incident.
