Israeli settlers vandalise property, steal cattle near Jordan Valley: Report
A group of Israeli settlers waged an overnight attack on family property in the northern Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank, reports the Wafa news agency.
During the attack, which took place near the illegal Israeli settlement of Hamra, settlers wrecked tents, solar cells and other property, while taking dozens of cattle, according to Wafa.
Israeli settlers regularly storm into Palestinian towns, attacking and vandalising property. The Ramallah-based Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission, a body that monitors illegal Israeli settlement expansion, reported 255 West Bank settler attacks in the month of March alone.

The northern West Bank has seen a surge in Israeli military operations and violence from Israelis from illegal settlements, leading to casualties, including the killings and arrests of Palestinians.
In January, Israeli forces launched a major incursion involving thousands of soldiers in cities and refugee camps in the area, killing dozens of people. Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been forced to flee their homes since the operation began.
Israeli troops have swept through refugee camps in Jenin and nearby cities, including Tulkarem, demolishing houses and basic infrastructure, including roads and water pipes.
