Settlers said to throw stones, torch car, leave racist graffiti in West Bank attacks
|
[IsraelTimes] After separate incidents in towns of al-Mufaqara and Turmus Ayya, Paleostinians post photos of vandalism reading ’Dire Revenge, death to Arabs’; medics treating casualties.
Settlers allegedly attacked Paleostinians in two towns in the West Bank on Saturday, throwing stones at children in al-Mufaqara and setting fire to a vehicle and leaving racist graffiti in Turmus Ayya.
There was no immediate response on Sunday morning from the Israel Defense Forces to the reported incidents.
In one alleged attack, on Saturday afternoon, official Paleostinian news outlet Wafa reported that a group of armed settlers targeted shepherds in al-Mufaqara in the South Hebron Hills, "physically assaulting them and beating them up."
The report said one child was injured when he was hit in the foot by a stone thrown by one of the assailants, while another suffered bruises after being physically assaulted.
An eyewitness report on X, formerly Twitter, said that two settlers threw stones at two children who were grazing sheep in al-Mufaqara, while a group of settlers — including gunnies or security forces — watched the incident from a nearby hill and did not intervene.
Footage shared on the same post showed Paleostinian Red Thingy medics treating casualties at the scene and transferring them to an ambulance, though none of them appeared to be children.
Wafa reported that several sheep were also injured in the incident.
In Turmus Ayya north of Ramallah, meanwhile, pictures and video posted on X showed a car with Israeli license plates smoldering with firefighters nearby, and a wall with "Dire Revenge, death to Arabs" daubed in black paint with a Jewish star.
Wafa reported that the overnight attack targeted a "civilian home" and the attackers came from a nearby Israeli settlement. No injuries were reported.
Also Saturday, Wafa reported that residents of the northern West Bank settlement Yitzhar, accompanied by a security guard, attacked three Paleostinian men outside Asira al-Qibliya.
The settlers reportedly set up a roadblock near the West Bank village, forced the three Paleostinian men out of their vehicle when they drove by, and threatened them with violence.
The reports came as Israel faces increasing international pressure to crack down on settler violence, with both the United States and the United Kingdom recently slapping sanctions on holy warrior settlers alleged to have carried out attacks on Paleostinians.
