Overnight Raids and Settler Attacks Reported Across the West Bank

Most accounts come from Palestinian sources with limited independent confirmation.

Overview

  • Palestinian agency Wafa described a wave of Israeli military raids and settler violence across several towns overnight, with arrests, injuries, and damage to homes and cars.
  • In al-Lubban Asharqiya south of Nablus, settlers reportedly set a house on fire, and Palestinian Civil Defence crews extinguished the blaze.
  • In the Jenin area, residents said Israeli troops forced them to exhume a newly buried body and move it because soldiers objected to the grave’s location near a settlement.
  • Near Solomon’s Pools by Bethlehem, Israeli forces used stun grenades to clear picnickers, and the Red Crescent treated two people for tear gas and evacuated five others.
  • Additional reports cited assaults in Beit Fajjar and Khirbet Shuweika that left a man and a child with head wounds, detentions in Battir and Tuqu, and clashes in Silwad after settlers entered the town.
