In al-Mazra'a al-Sharqiya, a school courtyard became a mourning tent after Sayfollah Musallet, a 20-year-old US citizen, was killed alongside 23-year-old Mohammed al-Shalabi during an attack attributed to Israeli settlers. Families reported that settlers obstructed efforts to aid them. Sayfollah arrived from Tampa to visit family. His cousin expressed disbelief over the tragedy while his father mourned the loss of dreams for marriage. The family stated that it took medics three hours to reach Sayfollah, who died en route to the hospital, calling for a US investigation into the attacks.
Sayfollah Musallet was beaten to death, and Mohammed al-Shalabi was shot during an attack by Israeli settlers, which their families describe as a targeted assault.
Mohammed's father, Razek Hassan al-Shalabi, shared his son's dreams of marriage, stating, 'In the morning he told me he wanted to get married,' now replaced by grief.
Diana Halum, Sayfollah's cousin, expressed devastation over his death, saying, 'Not in a million years did we think something so tragic would happen,' highlighting the brutal nature of the killing by settlers.
The family described Sayfollah's death as an 'unimaginable nightmare and injustice,' demanding the US State Department investigate and hold settlers accountable.
