West Bank, MINA – Extremist Jewish settlers carried out overnight attacks across the occupied West Bank through Sunday dawn, coinciding with raids by Israeli forces in several towns, according to the Palestine Information Center.

A horde of settlers attacked Palestinian vehicles with stones near the illegal Shilo settlement on the road between Ramallah and Nablus. Other settlers vandalized greenhouses during an assault on the town of Beit Furik and stormed the village of Awarta in the southeast of Nablus.

In southern al-Khalil, settlers set fire to Palestinian citizens’ property during an attack on the Wadi al-Rakhim area of Masafer Yatta, causing material damage and sparking panic among families. In southern Jenin, residents of Jaba town confronted a group of settlers who stormed the area and tried to attack their homes, forcing them to retreat.

In Ramallah, settlers attacked the home of Nayef Kaabneh in al-Taybeh town and carried out provocative tours in the nearby Abu Fazaa community. Meanwhile, Israeli forces raided Palestinian homes in the Harayek area on the outskirts of Beita town and stormed the villages of Burqa, Asira al-Qibliya, Urif, Awarta, and Einabus in Nablus governorate.
