Mukhles Musaed, head of the village council of the village of Yazraa in the city of Tubas in the West Bank, said in a statement to an Anadolu correspondent that dozens of armed settlers raided the village with cars and tractors.
He pointed out that the settlers attacked the villagers in their homes, damaged their property, and kidnapped dozens of cows belonging to Palestinian farmers. Musad explained that 3 villagers were injured in the attacks, and one of them was taken to the hospital.
An assistant added, “The settlers repeated their threats to expel the people from here during their attacks. They are trying to force the people from their lands.” He said.
Jewish settlers carried out 390 attacks in one month, and 9 Palestinians were martyred
On the other hand, the written statement issued by the Palestinian government’s Wall and Settlement Resistance Committee stated that the attacks carried out by Jewish settlers during last October were at a “record” level.
The statement stated that Jewish settlers carried out 390 attacks on Palestinians within one month, and that 9 Palestinians were martyred as a result of the attacks.
It was reported that due to settler attacks in the West Bank, 9 Bedouin communities comprising 810 people, consisting of approximately 100 families, were forced to migrate from their current location to another location.
He stated that Jewish settlers, under the protection of the Israeli army, carried out serious, violent and systematic attacks on civilians during the olive harvest season, which led to delaying the harvest date.
He stated that more than 126 attacks were carried out against Palestinians during the olive harvest, 55 of which involved firearms, and 41 of which included intimidation and threats with weapons.
About 700,000 Jewish settlers live in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem. According to international law, Jewish settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem are illegal.
The West Bank frequently witnesses raids and attacks launched by armed Jewish settlers under the protection of Israeli forces.
