Funerals have taken place for two Palestinian teenagers who local officials say were killed by Israeli settlers and soldiers in an attack on their village in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday.
The village council in al-Mughayyir told the BBC that Omar al-Naasan, 19, and Khalil Abu Alia, 16, were killed as they tried to stop Israeli settlers stealing sheep and that confrontations broke out.
The Israeli military stated that its forces had entered the village to provide security for an Israeli civilian and police trying to retrieve livestock.
