Israeli Military Investigates Alleged 'Illegal Executions' of Palestinians

Incidents of violence against Palestinians, including a beaten photojournalist, spark outrage amidst escalating tensions in the West Bank.

Israeli military police have opened an investigation into the killing of two Palestinians, Rami Jundob and Thaar Shahin, in the West Bank, as shown in videos posted by the B’Tselem human rights group.
The videos appear to show Israeli troops killing the men at close range during a military raid in a West Bank refugee camp, with one man incapacitated and the other unarmed.
B’Tselem has accused the army of carrying out 'illegal executions'.
In a separate incident, Israeli police have suspended officers caught on video beating up a Palestinian photojournalist, Mustafa Haruf, in east Jerusalem.
These incidents occur amidst heightened tensions in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, inflamed by the war between Israel and Hamas, with violence from Israeli forces and settlers reaching record levels.
