Israeli rights group releases footage showing settler shooting activist Awdah Hathaleen

Updates: Israel kills four Al Jazeera staff, including Anas al-Sharif

The Israeli human rights group B’Tselem has released a video showing settler Yinon Levi shooting and killing Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen. The footage was filmed by Hathaleen himself.

Levi was released days after killing the 31-year-old activist and was later seen returning to the scene of the crime at the Umm al-Kheir community centre in the occupied West Bank.

Attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians across the territory are being recorded on a nearly daily basis. The settlers are often backed by Israeli soldiers.
