ALWAGHT- Israeli settlers attacked Far'ata in the occupied West Bank, injuring eight Palestinians, six of whom were struck by live ammunition, as raids and settler violence intensified across the territory.
Eight Palestinians were injured, including six by live ammunition, after Israeli settlers attacked the village of Far'ata east of Qalqilya in the West Bank, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent. The incident came amid a broader surge in Israeli military raids and settler attacks across the territory.
Israeli forces carried out raids in multiple locations, including Aqabat Jabr refugee camp near Areeha, Kober near Ramallah, Yabad and Zababdeh in Jenin, and villages near Tulkarm and Nablus. Settlers also attacked Palestinian homes in Urif and reportedly raided the nearby village of Tell, triggering confrontations with residents.
Video footage circulating online appears to show armed Israeli settlers, accompanied by Israeli forces, advancing into Palestinian residential areas and attacking residents. Reports accompanying the footage say Israeli forces opened fire during the clashes, leaving several Palestinians dead or wounded, while Israeli media reported one Israeli officer killed and three other Israelis injured.
