Family of slain US citizen in West Bank urges US-led probe
The family of Sayfollah Musallet, a 20-year-old US citizen killed by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank, is calling on Washington to launch an independent investigation and hold those responsible to account.
Musallet, known as Saif, was reportedly surrounded and beaten for three hours during an assault on Friday, according to a family statement. The attackers also allegedly targeted medics attempting to reach him.
“This is an unimaginable nightmare and injustice that no family should ever have to face,” the family said.
They described Saif as a kind and hardworking young man from Florida who had been striving to build a better future.
“We demand that the US State Department lead an immediate investigation and hold the Israeli settlers who killed Saif accountable for their crimes. We demand justice,” the statement added.

It also accused Trump’s administration of offering Israel broad military, financial, political and diplomatic support during its ongoing war in Gaza.
