A Palestinian elderly woman sustained injuries on Saturday after being assaulted by extremist Jewish settlers in the town of Sa’ir, northeast of al-Khalil in the occupied West Bank.
Local sources reported that settlers attacked Palestinian farmers while they were cultivating their swaths of land in the Wadi Khanis area of Sa’ir.
An elderly woman identified as Umm Hussein Jabbarin was injured in the settler attack before she was transferred to a medical center by a Red Crescent ambulance crew.
Meanwhile, Israeli forces stormed the same area and kidnaped the woman’s sons, Hussein, Anas, and Issa Jabarin, after settlers assaulted her and other members of the family.
In separate incidents on Sunday, settler groups set fire to a house and a car, destroyed olive trees and a fence, and seized a building in the West Bank.
According to media sources, a horde of settlers attacked the village of Turmus Ayya, northeast of Ramallah, setting fire to the home of As’ad Tuffa’ha and a car belonging to another citizen.
In Bethlehem, settlers uprooted dozens of newly planted olive saplings in the Ush al-Ghurab area of Beit Sahour town and attacked homes in the Jabel Harasa area.
In al-Khalil, settlers seized a historic Jordanian military post known as “Rajm al-Naqa” in the village of al-Rashayda and connected it to a water network.
Another group of settlers vandalized a fence surrounding large tracts of land belonging to Palestinian citizens in the Huwara area of Masafer Yatta, south of al-Khalil.
