Israel seals Palestinian village amid West Bank tension

RAMALLAH, WEST BANK - JULY 22: Israeli forces on July 22, 2017 slapped a siege around the hometown of a Palestinian man, who allegedly killed three Jewish settlers in a nearby settlement. On Friday, Monir al-Abed, a 20-year old Palestinian, sneaked into the Halamish settlement, northwest of Ramallah and allegedly stabbed four settlers. Three settlers were killed and another was injured in the alleged attack, which came amid tension across the West Bank after Friday prayers over Israel's refusal to remove metal detectors it installed at the gates of Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque following a deadly shootout. In a statement, the Israeli army said its forces have sealed the Kobar village in the West Bank and "exit from it will be possible only in humanitarian cases". The military said it has mapped the attacker's home in preparation to its demolition. According to the statement, the brother of al-Abed was arrested during the operation. Father of Monir al-Abed speaks to the press at the town.(Footage by Yousuf Saleh Saleh Hamad/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images)
