A Palestinian was killed near Al-Mughayyir after an altercation developed between area Jewish settlers and a number of Palestinians, according to an IDF investigation Saturday. 

The settlers of Adi Ad, a settlement near Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, claimed they were viciously attacked by Palestinians with knives. One of the settlers was injured.

Armed settlers, who are in charge of keeping the safety of the citizens, opened fire at the Palestinians, killing one and injuring more than 20. Soon after, IDF troops arrived on the scene and began firing in an attempt to disperse the crowd.

Three Palestinians were also reportedly throwing rocks at drivers traveling on Route 60, near the Ofra junction. The IDF opened fire and injured two Palestinians. While the IDF treated the wounded, one of the Palestinians passed away. The third Palestinian escaped the scene.
