Israel charges settler for West Bank Palestinian activist's killing
Israeli prosecutors have charged Yinon Levi, a settler, with reckless manslaughter for the July 2025 killing of Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen in the occupied West Bank. This marks the first indictment of an Israeli for a Palestinian's death in the West Bank since the October 7, 2023 attacks. Separately, rights groups have called the Israeli killing of Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil a "war crime," alleging she was deliberately targeted. The coverage also notes an Israeli settler was charged for the killing of Awdah Hathaleen in the West Bank.
