PA reports 59-year-old Palestinian killed by IDF near Nablus; no comment from military

A man was killed by IDF gunfire in the Palestinian village of Madma, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, the Palestinian Authority’s General Authority for Civilian Affairs says.

He is identified as Jabarin Kot, 59. The IDF detained his body, the GACA says.

Separately, the PA’s official news agency WAFA reports that several Palestinians were injured after inhaling tear-gas from canisters launched by the IDF during a violent clash between Palestinians and settlers outside the nearby Palestinian village of Qusra.

The military does not immediately respond to a request for comment on either incident.
