There were no Israeli casualties in the incident. Advertisement The Israel Defense Forces confirmed a shooting involving settlers and a Palestinian man, but had no further details. It said it was still sorting out conflicting reports on the deadly clash Friday north of the West Bank town of Ramallah. According to Israeli media, settlers said the Palestinian man fired at them and they returned fire. Palestinian villagers said he apparently was hunting when the settlers killed him.
