Family of American killed by Israeli settlers urge US investigation
The family of a Palestinian American killed by Israeli settlers in Sinjil in the occupied West Bank has urged the US State Department to begin an "immediate investigation" into the incident.
Israeli settlers killed Florida-born Seif al-Din Muslat on Friday. He arrived in Sinjil last month to visit relatives.
"The mob of settlers blocked the ambulance and paramedics from providing life-saving aid," his family said, according to Haaretz.
The statement added that he "died before making it to the hospital".
Muslat was remembered as "kind, hard-working" and "known for his generosity, ambition, and connection to his Palestinian heritage".
