Israeli settlers injure at least 54 Palestinians in West Bank attacks
Dozens of Palestinians have been injured as Israeli settlers carried out a wave of attacks across the occupied West Bank, destroying olive trees and vandalising property.
At least 54 Palestinians were wounded on Friday morning as settlers attacked several towns and villages under the protection of the Israeli military.
Settlers assaulted Palestinian farmers on their lands near Talfit, a village south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, and Israeli troops fired tear gas and live ammunition at residents who tried to repel the settler attack.
Images from the village showed homes with broken windows and vehicles with smashed windshields as a result of the attack.
Elsewhere in the West Bank, Israeli settlers also destroyed about 300 Palestinian olive trees near the Ramallah-area town of Turmus Aya, the Wafa news agency reported, citing local sources.
Hamas condemns ‘barbaric attack’ by Israeli settlers in occupied West Bank
Hamas has condemned what it calls a “barbaric attack” carried out by “settler gangs and the fascist occupation army” on areas in and around Tulkarem and other parts of the occupied West Bank.
“The government of war criminal Netanyahu is systematically implementing a policy of ethnic cleansing against our Palestinian people, by giving free rein to heavily armed settlers, protected by the occupation army, to wreak havoc in the cities, villages, and camps of the occupied West Bank,” it said in a statement.
Hamas urged international bodies to act and called on Palestinians in the occupied West Bank “to unite in confronting these dangerous policies, and to activate all forms of struggle and resistance”.
