The occupied West Bank witnessed a new wave of coordinated attacks by illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers on Tuesday, alongside invasions by Israeli occupation forces targeting multiple towns, villages, and agricultural areas from Bethlehem to Ramallah and Hebron.
A Palestinian man was injured on the outskirts of the village of Al‑Maniya, southeast of Bethlehem, after colonizers assaulted him with an iron pipe.
Medical sources said the attackers beat Ziad Abdul‑Halim Shalalda on the head, neck, and right shoulder, causing moderate injuries, and attempted to steal his sheep before fleeing the area.
In Wadi Abu Njeim, south of Bethlehem, colonizers and attacked a Palestinian home and set fire to it and the to a car in front of the property.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said its medics rushed to the area and evacuate nine residents from the home.
East of Ethna, west of Hebron in the southern West Bank, colonizers rampaged through agricultural plains, harassing Palestinian farmers and attempting to seize their land.
Meanwhile, Israeli occupation bulldozers razed agricultural plots and uprooted olive trees near Ein al‑Dalbah, south of Hebron, as part of an ongoing campaign of land confiscation and demolitions. More than 500 Palestinian structures have been demolished since the beginning of 2026.
In Salfit, in the central West Bank, colonizers established a new outpost on the lands of Yasuf village. The head of the village council, Jom’a Abdul‑Fattah, said colonizers erected a tent in the Al‑Nasba area, only 50 meters from Palestinian homes.
He warned that the outpost is part of a broader strategy to impose new colonial realities on the ground and pressure residents. This marks the third outpost erected in Salfit in the past two days.
North of Ramallah, in the central West Bank, a group of colonizers seized olive‑planted land in the village of Umm Safa and converted it into grazing fields for their cattle. Israeli occupation forces simultaneously carried out widespread invasions across Ramallah and al‑Bireh.
In addition, a large military force accompanied by a bulldozer and groups of colonizers stormed Beitunia town, west of Ramallah, roaming its streets.
