Ramallah, MINA – Extremist Jewish settlers attacked several areas across the West Bank on Monday, targeting Palestinian citizens and property, the Palestinian Information Center reports.

In Ramallah, a horde of settlers stole olive harvests and destroyed olive trees in the town of Umm Safa, west of the city.

In Nablus, a group of settlers stormed the al-Harayek area of Beita town, south of the city, and stole olives from Palestinian groves.

In southern al-Khalil, settlers stormed an area around Palestinian homes in Khallet al-Hams in Masafer Yatta in an attempt to terrorize local residents and shepherds.

In the Jenin governorate, settlers hurled stones at Palestinian vehicles traveling on the road linking the towns of Jaba and Ajja, damaging some of them.

A wave of settler attacks was also reported across the occupied West Bank yesterday. A 45-year-old Palestinian man sustained injuries after settlers savagely assaulted him in Sebastia, northwest of Nablus. The settlers reportedly blocked an ambulance from reaching the wounded man for a period of time.

Another group of settlers assaulted a farmer while he was harvesting olives in the Mahfurya area of Aqraba town, south of Nablus, and stole his olive harvest along with his farming equipment.

In another incident, settlers escorted by soldiers stole olive harvests from Palestinian groves in the towns of Rammun and Deir Dibwan, northeast of Ramallah.

Settlers also bulldozed swaths of agricultural land in Umm Safa village, northwest of Ramallah, to expand an illegal outpost set up in the Jabal al-Ras area in 2024. Those settlers already seized hundreds of dunums in the area over recent months.

In Tulkarem, settlers assaulted Palestinian farmers from the Sanjaq family while they were harvesting olives on their land in the town of Ramin, east of the city. Those settlers stole olive crops and harvesting tools, severely beat and injured farmer Mujiruddin Sanjaq, and smashed his cellphone.

In Salfit, settlers attacked the an-Nasba area of Yasuf village, east of the city, throwing stones at the house of Basil Yassin.

Luckily, no one was hurt. Settlers also vandalized dozens of olive trees in the western part of Deir Ballut town, west of Salfit, and roamed the area to prevent farmers from reaching their land. In the town of Kafr ad-Dik, settlers stole olive crops from Palestinian farmland in the northern area and wreaked havoc on several olive trees.

In Jerusalem, settlers stormed the Wadi Abu Hindi community southeast of the holy city, assaulted several local shepherds, and stole around 130 head of sheep belonging to Eid Salama and Ibrahim Hammad.[]
