Communities across the occupied West Bank witnessed a new wave of attacks on Sunday, as illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers invaded multiple Palestinian areas, damaged homes and agricultural property, and forced residents and shepherds from their lands in the southern West Bank, central West Bank, occupied Jerusalem, Nablus in the northern West Bank, and the northern Jordan Valley.
A group of colonizers invaded a residential structure in Khirbet al‑Halawa in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron in the southern West Bank, vandalizing solar panels and damaging stone fences and agricultural enclosures.
Local sources reported that colonizers broke into the home of Ahmad Ismail al‑Amour, assaulted members of his family, and then destroyed and stole the solar panels that supply the residence with electricity.
In the nearby community of Khirbet al‑Rakeez, also in Masafer Yatta, colonizers damaged the fence surrounding the land of resident Sa’id al‑Amour and demolished several stone terraces.
Residents noted that attacks in the Masafer Yatta area have intensified in recent years, targeting homes, agricultural lands, and basic infrastructure, while families continue to call for protection from these ongoing violations.
Earlier on Sunday, colonizers continued their daily patrols and provocations throughout the hamlets of Masafer Yatta, including Ragham al‑‘Ali, Abu Shaban, al‑Halawa, al‑Fakhit, and other communities.
Also in Hebron, a group of colonizers invaded the Wadi Sa’ir area north of the city, after which Israeli soldiers stormed the area and forced Palestinians off the streets instead of removing the assailants.
Furthermore, Israeli colonizers, driving four-wheelers, chased a Palestinian vehicle transporting schoolchildren in Wadi Sa’ir area, northeast of Hebron.
In Nablus in the northern West Bank, groups of colonizers invaded several areas around the city, including the main street in Huwwara town south of Nablus. The colonizers, accompanied by Israeli soldiers, closed main streets, forced shops to shut, and removed Palestinians from public areas.
Media activist Osama Makhamra stated that colonizers routinely chase Palestinian residents and shepherds, break into homes, and release their livestock onto Palestinian agricultural lands. He added that colonizers also invaded the home of Mohammad an‑Najjar in Khirbet al‑Markaz and released sheep around the property and in nearby fields.
In the central West Bank, illegal paramilitary colonizers fenced off agricultural land in the town of Ni’lin, west of Ramallah. Local sources said armed colonizers invaded the Jabal al‑‘Alam area and began enclosing portions of the surrounding land.
Colonizers established an agricultural outpost on the hilltop a year and a half ago, and the area has since been subjected to repeated attacks by both the Israeli military and colonizers.
Also in Ramallah, several colonizers attacked a Palestinian home on the outskirts of Sinjil town and attempted to assault the family.
In occupied Jerusalem, colonizers invaded a Bedouin community near al‑‘Eizariya, east of the city. Local residents reported that colonizers entered the “Bir al‑Maskoub 1” Bedouin community, moved among the homes, and photographed Palestinian youth.
The attack is part of a broader policy targeting Bedouin communities with the aim of depriving them of essential living conditions and pressuring them toward forced displacement.
In the northeastern West Bank, colonizers forced Palestinian shepherds to leave grazing areas in Khirbet Samra in the northern Jordan Valley. The region has seen a sharp escalation in colonizer violence, with recent attacks displacing nearly twenty families from the al‑Burg and al‑Maita communities over the past several days.
Residents and rights groups describe these actions as part of a sustained effort to pressure Palestinians to abandon their homes and lands and relocate outside the Jordan Valley.
