Settlements Observatory: 27 settler attacks in occupied West Bank

The Settlements Observatory documented 27 attacks by Israeli settlers and occupation forces across the occupied West Bank on Monday, April 27.

According to a report published Tuesday, the violations included assaults on civilians, arson, land bulldozing, destruction of property, and live fire incidents in Nablus, Ramallah, Bethlehem, Salfit, Hebron, and the Jordan Valley.

In Nablus, the report highlighted violent attacks in Jalud village, including the siege of a Palestinian family for nine days, injuries to several residents (including a child), and the burning of houses, a storage room, and a vehicle. Settlers also reportedly fired live ammunition at residents.

In Ramallah, around 200 olive trees were uprooted, while settlers attacked farmers, grazed livestock on Palestinian land, and blocked access roads.

In Bethlehem and Salfit, settlers attacked vehicles with stones and fired at residents, while in Hebron and the Jordan Valley, they carried out provocative marches and repeated night raids under Israeli military protection.

The report said the attacks aim to forcibly displace Palestinian families amid continued escalation in settlement activity.
