Israeli settler terrorism, in the occupied West Bank. According to the United Nations humanitarian affairs office, there have been 71 documented attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians and their property in just one week. Among the latest victims is a 55-year-old Palestinian woman who was beaten unconscious by a masked settler wielding a club while tending to her olive grove in Turmus Aya. She now suffers from a brain hemorrhage and remains hospitalized.
Independent journalist Jasper Nathaniel, who captured footage of the incident, described the attack as resembling a “lynch mob.” These violent assaults, carried out with near impunity, continue to terrorize Palestinian civilians during the olive harvest season—a vital source of livelihood and cultural heritage.Additionally, Palestinians are mourning the loss of 10-year-old Muhammad al-Hallaq, who was fatally shot by Israeli soldiers while playing soccer in his village near Hebron. Such acts demand urgent international accountability and protection for Palestinian civilians.
