Abu Hasan was shot and seriously injured. He was moved to a hospital where he was pronounced dead shortly after.
Ahmed Jibril, the director of the Ambulance and Emergency Centre at the Red Crescent in Nablus, told local media that Israeli forces prevented ambulances from reaching the village where the raid was taking place.
Nearly 250 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli occupation forces since the beginning of the year in the occupied West Bank, Jerusalem, and Gaza Strip.
