Gaza: Israeli forces and colonists intensified their operations across several areas of the West Bank, leading to the demolition of homes and structures, damage to infrastructure, and the targeting of Palestinian property.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, in the Jabal Malouh area, east of Beit Awa, west of Hebron, Israeli troops demolished a single-story house measuring 160 square meters, along with a shed used for vehicle parking. The house, owned by Ahmed Yasser Malouh al-Masalmeh, was home to a family of ten, primarily children, who are now displaced.
In Beit Liqya, west of Ramallah, occupation forces targeted the "Triangle of the Town" area, demolishing a 170-square-meter, two-story house under construction belonging to Ayed Fouad Bader, citing the absence of a permit. Additionally, they demolished a carpentry workshop owned by Munir Suleiman Assem and two sheds belonging to Munir Assi and Najeh Bakr Assi. In the village of Beit Nuba, the home of Muhammad Rayyan was also demolished by Israeli forces.
Meanwhile, colonists were reported to have cut down and damaged electricity poles in the al-Zarqa area of Beitillu village, west of Ramallah. In al-Maniya village, southeast of Bethlehem, colonists destroyed the drinking water network in the al-Qarn area for the fifth time recently. They also attacked the home of Ismail Jabarin and his sons, subjecting residents to harsh interrogation, though no detentions were documented.
In Anza village, south of Jenin, colonists reportedly stole a beverage kiosk and its contents. Later on Monday, settlers entered Kafr Qud village, southwest of Jenin, where they were seen touring neighborhoods and photographing local water springs and the village council building before departing.
This surge in activity comes amid a backdrop of escalating colonist attacks and incursions into Palestinian villages and towns, marked by frequent and provocative actions against residents.
