Injuries and Arrests in Attacks by Settlers and Occupation in the West Bank

SadaNews - A citizen was injured with bruises this evening, Wednesday, in an attack by settlers on the village of Burqa east of Ramallah.

Local sources reported that a group of settlers attacked the village and assaulted the citizen Abdul Rahim Khalid Muaiten, injuring him and attempting to steal his livestock.

Several citizens also suffered from gas inhalation due to tear gas fired by the occupation army during their incursion into the town of al-Mughayar northeast of Ramallah.

Local sources stated that the occupation army stormed the town and fired tear gas canisters towards citizens' homes and residential areas, resulting in cases of suffocation among the residents, especially children and the elderly.

It was reported that occupation soldiers spread across several neighborhoods within the town, firing gas canisters heavily among the houses and around internal roads, causing panic among the citizens.

Meanwhile, other forces arrested two brothers from the town of Yamoun west of Jenin.

According to the Prisoners' Club in Jenin, the occupation forces arrested the brothers Ahmad and Abdul Hadi Nasser Abahriah after storming the town and raiding their homes.

Additionally, occupation forces stormed the town of Silat al-Harithiya west of Jenin, raiding several homes and detaining a number of citizens.

A young man was also injured by occupation army fire in the city of Jenin.

The Red Crescent Society stated that its crews transported a 28-year-old man to the hospital after he was shot with live fire in the thigh while riding his motorcycle near the Jenin refugee camp.

A citizen and her daughter were injured due to an assault by settlers on them with beating in the "Qamas" area between the towns of Ousrain and Beita south of Nablus.

Local sources reported that a number of settlers attacked several citizens in the Qamas area, leading to injuries to a woman and her daughter from the village of Ousrain, and they were transported to the hospital for treatment.

Meanwhile, occupation forces stormed the village of al-Lubban al-Sharqiya south of Nablus.

Local sources reported that several occupation vehicles stormed the village, patrolling its streets and firing tear gas canisters and sound bombs, without any reports of injuries.

Settlers released their cattle to destroy agricultural crops of citizens in Khirbat Samra in the northern Jordan Valley.

Local sources mentioned that settlers unleashed their cattle on fields planted with wheat and barley to damage them.

Khirbat Samra has been witnessing increasing attacks by settlers, and the frequency and severity of these attacks have escalated since the beginning of this month, especially with the establishment of a settler tent close to citizens' homes, which has become a point of launch for their daily assaults, including attacking citizens' homes, assaulting them, chasing shepherds, and destroying agricultural crops.

In this context, occupation forces notified the removal of a pole for the internet network in the northern Jordan Valley, according to rights activist Aref Daraghmeh.

He stated that the occupation notified the removal of a pole for the internet network in the al-Borj gathering, which is used to operate surveillance cameras documenting settler attacks against citizens and their properties.

Meanwhile, settlers cut down more than 70 olive trees and dozens of forest trees, and destroyed a fence in Masafer Yatta south of Hebron.

Activist Osama Makhamrah stated that armed settlers from the Susiya settlement established on citizens' land in Masafer Yatta stormed the Agzaiwa area, cutting down more than 70 fruitful olive trees and dozens of forest trees.

He added that the settlers destroyed a fence surrounding the land owned by citizen Zuhair Finsha and wrote racist slogans against the residents on an agricultural room belonging to Finsha in that area.
