A US citizen taking part in a protest against settlement expansion in West Bank died of her wounds on Friday after being shot in the head by Israeli troops, according to Report, which cites Reuters.
The Israeli military said it was looking into the report. There was no immediate comment from the US embassy.
Fouad Nafaa, the head of the Rafidia Hospital in Nablus, told Reuters the woman arrived at the hospital in a very critical condition, with a serious head injury.
"We tried to perform a resuscitation operation on her, but unfortunately she died," he said.
WAFA said the incident occurred during a regular protest march by activists in Beita, a town near the city of Nablus that has seen repeated attacks by settlers.
