Four Palestinian citizens were wounded, including one seriously, on Thursday, during a settler attack in the village of Deir Abu Mash’al, northwest of Ramallah in the central occupied West Bank.
According to Jamil Musa, the head of the Deir Abu Mash’al village council reported that a group of colonizers attacked a group of Palestinians in the “Qarana” hill area using sticks, knives, and sharp objects, wounding four people, one of whom was seriously injured.
Earlier on Friday, a number of illegal colonizers set up a colonial tent on citizens’ land in the village, before Palestinians succeeded in dismantling the outpost, which resulted in confrontations.
Occupation forces stormed the area, firing tear gas towards Palestinians while they were attempting to protect their land from theft by illegal colonizers.
Meanwhile, colonizers attacked Palestinian homes and vehicles in the village of Yasuf, northeast of Salfit in the central West Bank.
The Qurei Yasuf Council reported that a group of settlers hurled rocks at the homes of Palestinian citizens in the village, smashing the windows of two homes and the windows of a vehicle.
The Al-Baydar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights reported that a group of colonizers invaded the village of Khan al-Ahmar, east of occupied Jerusalem, and cut water lines which supply Bedouin communities.
In the northern West Bank, settlers hurled Molotov cocktails towards a water well on the lands of Odala village, south of Nablus, causing fires on citizens’ lands.
In the town of Burqa, northwest of Nablus, a number of armed colonizers stormed the “Al-Masoudiya” area and harassed Palestinian farmers, with the aim of forcing them to leave the area.
Furthermore, a group of settlers obstructed citizens’ movement after blocking the road connecting the town of Beitunia to villages west of Ramallah.
Another group of colonizers set up a tent on lands belonging to the citizen Mohammad Al-Ubayyat, in the village of Um Safa, north of the city.
On Friday morning, colonizers invaded the “Mleihat” Bedouin community near the village of Taybeh, east of Ramallah, and roamed among homes, provoking the residents.
Dozens of Israeli colonizers broke into the Sheikh al-Qatrawani shrine in the town of Atara, north of Ramallah, after cutting the barbed wire around the cultural and heritage site.
In addition, Israeli settlers stormed the Solomon’s Pools tourist area near the town of Al-Khader, southeast of Bethlehem in the southern West Bank, followed by an incursion by occupation soldiers.
