New footage shows final moments of 'No Other Land' activist

An Israeli human rights organisation has published new footage showing the final moments of Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen before he was shot dead by Israeli settler Yinon Levi, who has since been released from detainment. 

B’Tselem said the video obtained was recorded by Hathaleen himself, who was a consultant for the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land.

The clip taken on 28 July centres around Levi, who is seen brandishing a gun moments before shooting directly at Hathaleen, causing him to collapse while the video cuts off shortly after. 

An active excavator can be seen behind the settler in the occupied West Bank village of Umm al-Khair, in the Masafer Yatta area near Hebron - a clear indication of what appears to be another demolition of Palestinian property by Israelis to make way for further settlement expansion. 

Such demolitions and settlements are illegal under international law.
