On Saturday, illegal colonizers, with the support of Israeli soldiers, injured at least six Palestinians in the Hebron and Salfit governorates. Settlers demolished a barn in the town of Arraba, southwest of Jenin, while soldiers and settlers harassed farmers and prevented them from accessing their land.
Media sources reported that a group of Israeli settlers from the nearby illegal “Beit Ein” colony stormed Palestinian lands in the “Al-Quraynat” area in the town of Surif, northwest of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank.
Occupation soldiers, providing protection for the illegal settlers, opened fire with live rounds towards Palestinians who resisted the incursion.
Two Palestinians, a father (57) and his son (27), sustained live gunshot injuries, while another young man (31) suffered a fractured jaw and bruising, after settlers assaulted him with batons.
Another group of colonizers assaulted Palestinians while they were picking sage in the village of Iskaka, northeast of Salfit in the central West Bank.
The settlers injured the citizens Bashar Lami, Aisha Lami, and Fawzia Lami after assaulting them; they were transported to the hospital for treatment.
Israeli colonizers demolished a residential barracks belonging to the Rahal family and released their livestock on their land in the town of Arraba, southwest of Jenin in the northern West Bank.
In the northern West Bank, Israeli forces and colonizers invaded the Beit Furik plain area, southeast of Nablus, on Saturday morning, and prevented farmers from harvesting their wheat crops.
