Illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers carried out a series of coordinated attacks on Palestinian civilians and property on Wednesday across the southern Hebron area, Ramallah district, and Nablus region, injuring residents, damaging vehicles, stealing livestock, and attempting to invade homes under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.
A Palestinian man and his son suffered burns and suffocation on Wednesday after illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers assaulted residents and shepherds in the Masafer Yatta area, south of Hebron, in the southern West Bank.
Activist Osama Makhamra stated that armed colonizers attacked civilians in Wadi Abu Shaban and sprayed them with pepper spray, injuring Sa’id Elian Awad and his son Moath, who were transported by Palestinian Red Crescent Society medics to Yatta Governmental Hospital.
In northern Hebron, armed colonizers attacked Palestinian vehicles with stones and blocked the road leading to the city’s northern entrance.
The group closed what is known as Route 35, ignited tires in the middle of the road, and prevented Palestinian cars from passing before pelting them with stones, shattering the windows of several vehicles.
In the Ramallah district, in the central West Bank, large groups of colonizers invaded the industrial zone of Birzeit and carried out acts of vandalism and intimidation against residents and their property.
Local sources said colonizers, backed by Israeli occupation soldiers, attempted to attack homes on the outskirts of Birzeit and the nearby village of Jifna, sparking confrontations with Palestinian youths before the soldiers fired live ammunition heavily around the area. In Jifna, colonizers stole 170 sheep from a farm they had invaded.
This escalation is part of ongoing, repeated attacks by colonizers in towns and villages north of Ramallah, often under direct military protection, posing an increasing threat to Palestinian lives and property.
In the Nablus district, in the northern West Bank, colonizers attacked homes in the town of Beita on Wednesday evening.
Media sources reported that several colonizers in a vehicle invaded the Bir Qouza hill area and threw stones at Palestinian homes.
