The Palestine Red Crescent Society said Israeli forces prevented their medical team from reaching the victim, the Wafa news agency reported.
In a separate incident, an Israeli settler was fatally shot in an attack near the illegal settlement of Halamish in the central West Bank.
The 30-year-old man was taken to a hospital where he died of his wounds, police said.
The army said it was searching for a suspect who opened fire from a vehicle and left the scene on foot. After the shooting, Israeli forces closed all entry and exit points to Ramallah and el-Bireh cities, Wafa reported.
