Off-Duty Soldier Arrested for Firing at Palestinian Village
An off-duty Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier was arrested on Tuesday after allegedly firing shots toward the Palestinian village of al-Mughayyir in the West Bank. The soldier, identified as Daniel Peretz, was reportedly on vacation at the time of the incident.
According to initial reports, the shooting occurred after Peretz's vehicle was reportedly stoned as he passed near the village. He then allegedly fired his weapon in the direction of al-Mughayyir. The IDF confirmed the arrest and stated that military police are investigating the incident. The soldier has since been released under restrictive conditions, including house arrest and a ban from approaching the West Bank.
This incident follows a period of heightened tensions in the West Bank. Palestinian officials condemned the shooting, calling it an act of aggression against civilians. The Israeli military has not yet released further details regarding the investigation or potential charges against the soldier.
