West Bank, MINA – Israeli occupation settlers attacked Palestinian families on the first day of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha on Wednesday in an area in eastern Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, according to a Palestinian activist.
Fares Kaabneh told Anadolu Agency that settlers targeted families in the al-Khalaifa area of al-Taybeh village. He said the settlers deliberately drove herds of sheep and camels into the vicinity of Palestinian homes, causing damage to residents’ property and destroying trees. Kaabneh added that the settlers surrounded Palestinian homes during the attack.
According to a monthly report by the Palestinian Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission, Israeli settlers carried out 540 attacks against Palestinians and their property across the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, in April.
Since the start of the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023, the West Bank has witnessed an escalation in attacks by the Israeli army and settlers, particularly in rural and Bedouin areas near settlements and outposts.
