Israeli settler kills West Bank activist who worked on Oscar-winning film

Source: Al Jazeera

An Israeli settler has shot and killed Palestinian activist and teacher Odeh Muhammad Hadalin in the village of Umm al-Khair, in Masafer Yatta, in the occupied West Bank, local officials and journalists said.

Hadalin was well known for his activism, including helping the creators of the Oscar-winning film No Other Land, which documents Israeli settler and soldier attacks on the Palestinian community of Masafer Yatta.

Hadalin “was shot dead by settlers… during their attack on the village of Umm al-Khair” near Hebron, the Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Education wrote on social media late on Monday.

The two filmmakers behind No Other Land – Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham and Palestinian journalist Basel Adra – also confirmed that the activist was shot and killed.

…. At their neighbors because they want their homes.

This is a travesty that will hurt all humans in the area.
