BETHLEHEM: Israeli occupation forces and colonists Friday evening attacked a Palestinian's house in Khalayel al-Louz, southeast of the occupied West Bank city of Bethlehem, according to an anti-settler-colonialism activist. Hasan Breijah said that the occupation forces and colonists mounted an attack on a Palestinian's house, ransacking it. He added that the assailants also broke into a livestock barn belonging to another Palestinian, simultaneously while firing concussion grenades. Colonists' violence against Palestinians and their property is routine in the West Bank and is rarely prosecuted by Israeli authorities. Colonists' violence includes property and mosque arsons, stone-throwing, uprooting of crops and olive trees, and attacks on vulnerable homes, among others. Over 700,000 Israeli colonists are living in colonies across occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank in violation of international law. Source: Palestine news & Information Agency - WAFA
