In the occupied West Bank, an Israeli settler shot and killed the Palestinian activist and teacher Odeh Muhammad Hadalin in a village near Hebron on Monday. Hadalin played a key role in the production of the Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land,” which follows Palestinians in the community of Masafer Yatta as they struggle to stay on their land amid violent attacks by Jewish settlers. Residents identified Hadalin’s killer as Yinon Levi, an Israeli settler who was put on a European Union sanctions list last year for his violent attacks on Palestinians and their property. The Trump administration earlier this year lifted Biden-era U.S. sanctions on Levi. Video appears to show him brandishing and firing a handgun at Palestinians ahead of Monday’s fatal attack. Palestinian journalist and “No Other Land” co-director Basel Adra mourned Hadalin’s killing, writing, “This is how Israel erases us — one life at a time.”
