Israeli soldiers are seen on video forcing visitors to leave a mourning tent set up in memory of Awdah Hathaleen in his village of Umm al-Kheir, near the area where he was allegedly shot by a settler a day ago.
Footage shows soldiers instructing all non-residents of the village to leave due to the declaration of the area as a closed military zone.
The IDF has not yet issued a response.
