DaysofPal- Israeli settlers on Saturday evening assaulted several Palestinian farmers while they were working on the land of Palestinian citizen Naeem Mohammed Al-Radi in the Khallit al-Nahla area of Wadi Rahal village, south of Bethlehem.
Meanwhile, other Israeli settlers stormed the Khirbet Samra area in the northern Jordan Valley.
Local sources reported that a group of settlers raided the area and attacked the farmers with physical violence, injuring Mousa Mohammed Mahmoud Harzallah, Reda Mohammed Mahmoud Harzallah, and Abdullah Ibrahim Ziyada with varying degrees of bruises and injuries.
The Khallit al-Nahla area has been subjected to repeated settler assaults for years, as part of ongoing attempts to seize more Palestinian agricultural lands for settlement expansion.
In a separate incident, Israeli settlers stormed Khirbet Samra in the northern Jordan Valley on Saturday evening, roaming among Palestinian tents, shouting insults, and threatening residents. The raid caused fear and panic, especially among women and children.
This escalation comes amid a wave of deadly settler attacks in the occupied West Bank in recent weeks, which have resulted in the killing and injuring of several Palestinians , including farmers and shepherds , targeted by live fire or brutally beaten.
Palestinian and international human rights organizations have documented the growing number of settler crimes, often carried out under the protection or with the tacit approval of Israeli occupation forces.
The northern Jordan Valley has been witnessing near-daily incursions by armed settlers as part of a systematic pressure campaign aimed at forcing Palestinians to abandon their homes and lands.
This is part of a broader Israeli plan to empty the area of its Palestinian population in favor of settlement expansion projects.
