BURIAL OF KHATIBWEST BANK, PALESTINE - JUNE 25, 2026: Mourners gathered Thursday to perform funeral prayers for a Palestinian man killed during an overnight Israeli military raid in the occupied West Bank. Palestinian man was killed after being shot by Israeli forces during a raid on the town of Sarta in the occupied West Bank, Palestine, according to witnesses. Israeli forces entered the town, located west of Salfit, to conduct house searches and arrest operations targeting several Palestinians. Witnesses stated that during the raid, Israeli soldiers entered a home and opened fire at Mustafa Taha Khatib while he was inside the house, critically wounding him. Khatib was subsequently transferred to the Salfit Government Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. Following the incident, a funeral service was held for Khatib in Sarta. The West Bank has seen escalating attacks by the Israeli army on Palestinians and their property since the Gaza war in October 2023. Since Oct. 8, 2023, Israeli escalation by the army and occupiers in the West Bank has killed 1,173 Palestinians, wounded 12,666, led to the arrest of about 23,000 and displaced 33,000, according to official Palestinian figures. Palestinians warn that the attacks are paving the way for Israel to formally annex the West Bank, which would end the possibility of establishing an independent Palestinian state under UN resolutions. Israel was established in 1948 on lands occupied by armed Zionist groups, and in 1967 occupied the remaining Palestinian territories, including the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and the eastern part of Jerusalem.
