Illegal Israeli paramilitary colonizers, often accompanied by Israeli occupation forces, carried out a series of coordinated attacks on Friday across the occupied West Bank, assaulting Palestinian civilians, invading agricultural areas, and targeting vehicles and homes in several districts, including Nablus in the northern West Bank, Salfit and Ramallah in the central West Bank, Hebron in southern West Bank, and occupied Jerusalem.
In Beit Imrin, northwest of Nablus in the northern West Bank, colonizers attacked three Palestinians, including a woman, while they were working on their land in the surrounding hills. Local sources said the colonizers also targeted the family’s vehicle with stones and pepper spray, causing injuries and damage before fleeing the area.
In another incident in the Nablus district, illegal colonizers, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, invaded the Khirbet Tana area belonging to the town of Beit Furik, east of the city.
The colonizers forced worshippers to evacuate the Beit al‑Sheikh Mosque during Friday prayers, disrupting the service and causing fear among residents.
Also on Friday, colonizers attacked Palestinian vehicles between Salfit, in the central West Bank, and the village of Al‑Lubban ash‑Sharqiya, south of Nablus.
Locals reported that colonizers from an illegal outpost threw stones at passing vehicles and obstructed Palestinian movement near the Ein al‑Sha’er area.

In Mikhmas, north of occupied Jerusalem, colonizers invaded the al‑Duweir neighborhood and released their cattle onto Palestinian lands in what residents described as a deliberate provocation aimed at damaging crops and asserting control over the area.
In Al‑Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah in the central West Bank, colonizers attacked Palestinian farmers and fired live rounds toward them, forcing them to flee their lands.

Israeli soldiers accompanying the colonizers launched tear‑gas canisters toward nearby homes, causing several residents to suffer from gas inhalation.
In addition, colonizers invaded the village of Yabrud, east of Ramallah, on Friday evening, assaulting residents and stealing a horse and a herd of livestock before fleeing the area.
Local sources said a group of colonizers, one of whom was carrying an automatic rifle, approached a Palestinian home near the main road in the Ein area of the village. When residents attempted to confront the attack, the colonizers assaulted one of them with sticks, injuring him before escaping toward nearby colonial outposts.
Eyewitnesses said the colonizers seized a horse and dozens of sheep belonging to local families, adding that the attack caused fear among residents and disrupted movement in the area.
Colonizers also attacked Palestinian shepherds in the Tal Ma’in area of Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank, while Israeli forces providing protection to the colonizers abducted Mohammad Abdul‑Kamel al‑Hammamda and his son Yahya.
During the attack, colonizers sprayed pepper gas at residents, injuring Mohammad Mahmoud al‑Hammamda.

Colonizers further assaulted residents and shepherds in the Khirbet al‑Mufaqara community, where they invaded the home of Mahmoud Hussein al‑Hammamda, smashed the door, and damaged the contents of the house, terrifying the children.
Colonizers carried out additional attacks across several communities in Masafer Yatta, including destroying crops, releasing their sheep and cattle onto Palestinian agricultural lands, and chasing shepherds and local residents, all under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.
These incidents are part of a growing pattern of coordinated attacks by colonizers across the occupied West Bank, often carried out under the protection of Israeli forces and aimed at pressuring Palestinian communities, restricting access to agricultural lands, and expanding colonial control.
