Gaza Herald – Palestinian citizens sustained injuries during widespread settler attacks across the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem on Friday evening. Local sources reported that settlers targeted lands and residents in the eastern area of Beit Furiik, resulting in casualties among those who attempted to repel the assault.
Simultaneously, groups attacked Abu Hamra in Beit Rima south of Nablus, engaging in disorderly conduct within the location. The governorates witnessed a marked escalation in settler violence throughout the day, with incidents spanning multiple districts.
In Ramallah and al-Bireh, five young men were injured after settlers pelted their vehicle with stones near Yabrud village entrance. The attack caused the vehicle to overturn north-east of the governorate. Meanwhile, in Masfa Yata south of Hebron, settlers vandalized property in Khallet al-Hums following the demolition of a residence by occupation forces.
The destruction included burning an agricultural room and smashing dozens of olive trees in other Hebron lands. Occupation forces accompanied armed settlers to prevent farmers from accessing their land in Al-Jumjumeh area in Halhul north of Hebron. A settler also assaulted a Palestinian woman with a stick in Masfa Yata.
In occupied Jerusalem, settlers continued provoking citizens in Bedouin settlements north and east of the city. These actions aimed at displacing residents from their lands. The incidents highlight the intensifying pressure on communities facing repeated encroachments and violence in these regions.
