Palestinian activist Owdeh Hathaleen killed by Israeli settler in West bank

Owdeh Hathaleen, a 31-year‑old Palestinian activist, teacher, and filmmaker behind the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land, was shot dead by an Israeli settler near the village of Umm al‑Khair in the South Hebron Hills. Witnesses say settler Yinon Levi, previously under EU and U.S. sanctions, opened fire during a confrontation sparked by land seizure and bulldozer activity. Hathaleen fell after being hit in the chest and later died in hospital.
