Earlier at dawn, colonizer groups stormed the \u201cShakara\u201d area of Duma, south of Nablus, attacking families, invading homes, and terrorizing residents in an effort to push them off their land.<\/p>\n<p>South of Nablus, colonizers assaulted several Palestinians in the Wadi al\u2011Hajj Issa area between Aqraba and Jurish. Local sources reported that colonizers beat residents during the attack.<\/p>\n<p>The same area was targeted yesterday when colonizers assaulted Palestinians and sprayed them with pepper spray.<\/p>\n<p>Across the occupied West Bank, attacks by illegal paramilitary colonizers have intensified, particularly in the Jordan Valley, Nablus district, and the Jerusalem periphery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"title single\"><a title=\"Permalink to: Israeli Colonizers Uproot 300 Olive Trees Near Ramallah\" href=\"https:\/\/imemc.org\/article\/israeli-colonizers-uproot-300-olive-trees-near-ramallah\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">|Israeli Colonizers Uproot 300 Olive Trees Near Ramallah|<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Wall &amp; Colonization Resistance Commission has documented a steady rise in land seizures, home invasions, and forced displacement, especially targeting Bedouin and herding communities.<\/p>\n<p>These assaults reflect a sustained campaign to fragment Palestinian presence in strategic areas and entrench Israeli control.<\/p>\n<p>Human rights groups and Palestinian officials warn that these coordinated attacks, often carried out under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, form part of a broader effort to depopulate rural Palestinian communities and expand colonial outposts.<\/p>\n<p>All of Israel\u2019s colonies in the occupied West Bank, including those in and around occupied East Jerusalem, are illegal under International Law, the Fourth Geneva Convention, in addition to various United Nations and Security Council resolutions.
