Havat Gilad

Havat Gilad is an Israeli settlement located in the northern West Bank, near the Palestinian village of Tell and the city of Nablus. It has recently become the site of significant violence. In late July 2026, a shooting incident occurred near Nablus, resulting in the deaths of four Palestinians and one Israeli. Reports from residents described the event as a settler attack, with the Israeli military also involved. This incident marked the deadliest attack in the West Bank that year and involved injuries to several other individuals. The circumstances surrounding the shooting were initially unclear, but the event highlights the ongoing tensions and potential for escalation of violence in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
