Nablus/Bethlehem/Ramallah/Al-Aghwar – Saba:
Four Palestinian citizens were injured on Thursday as a result of ongoing attacks by Zionist settlers on several Palestinian towns and villages in the occupied West Bank.
Three Palestinians sustained bruises after settlers attacked them near Al-Masoudiya, northwest of Nablus.
Palestinian Red Crescent spokesman Ahmed Jibril reported that Red Crescent crews treated three injuries and provided them with field treatment following a settler attack near the Al-Masoudiya area on the Jenin-Nablus road, according to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA).
A young man was also injured and bruised after being assaulted by settlers from the Gush Etzion settlement, built on Palestinian land south of Bethlehem.
Security sources told WAFA that settlers attacked a worker from the town of Sa'ir, north of Hebron, while he was working south of Bethlehem. They beat him, causing bruises and wounds. He was subsequently transferred to a hospital in Bethlehem.
In a related development, a number of settlers stormed the outskirts of the town of Turmus Ayya, north of Ramallah, after re-establishing a settlement outpost in the town's plain.
Local sources reported that a number of settlers stormed the Wadi al-Hamam area in the Turmus Ayya plain and were present near the homes of Palestinian residents, protected by Israeli occupation forces.
Earlier today, settlers rebuilt a pastoral settlement outpost that had been demolished by Israeli occupation authorities on Wednesday in the Turmus Ayya plain.
As part of the ongoing attacks by Zionist settlers on towns and villages in occupied Palestine, a settler attacked Khirbet al-Farisiya in the northern Jordan Valley and began carrying out provocative acts against Palestinian residents.
Local sources reported that a settler from the Rotem settlement attacked the Ahmir area in Khirbet al-Farisiya, wandered among the residents' tents, and began carrying out provocative acts, including spilling water from water tanks used for watering livestock and stealing fodder.
Khirbet al-Farisiya is subjected to daily attacks by settlers, including attacks on Palestinian homes and intimidation, as well as stalking them in pastures, forcing them to leave, and assaulting or stealing their livestock.
