Illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers carried out multiple coordinated attacks across the occupied West Bank on Thursday, assaulting a Palestinian man near Burin, invading the town of Tuqu’, erecting a tent on village lands, and fencing off privately owned property west of Ramallah.
In the Burin area, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, colonizers assaulted a 49‑year‑old Palestinian man, beating him and causing bruises and wounds.
The head of the Palestinian Red Crescent Emergency and Ambulance Center in Nablus, Ameed Ahmad, said medical crews treated the injured man before transferring him to a hospital.
In Tuqu’, southeast of Bethlehem, a group of colonizers invaded the town and gathered in the Khirbet ad‑Deir area near the municipal building, provoking residents.
Shortly afterward, Israeli occupation forces stormed the area, firing tear‑gas canisters, and concussion grenades, causing several Palestinians to suffer from gas inhalation.
In a related incident, colonizers erected a tent on lands belonging to the nearby village of Harmala, raising fears among residents that the move is a prelude to seizing the land for colonial expansion.
Meanwhile, in the village of Al‑Janiya, west of Ramallah in the central West Bank, colonizers fenced off approximately three dunams of privately owned Palestinian land that Israeli authorities had issued a seizure order for about five months earlier.
Locals said the fenced‑off area lies only tens of meters from Palestinian homes and is located outside the boundaries of the illegal “Talmon” colony.
