In recent years — and especially since 7 October 2023 — there has been a sharp increase in both the number and severity of settler attacks against Palestinians. The incidents reported on this blog do not reflect all incidents of settler violence in the West Bank, but only those that B’Tselem was able to document and investigate.

At around noon, two settlers arrived in a pickup truck at some pastureland north of al-Farisiyah, where several members of the community were grazing their flocks, including three brothers from the Abu Muhsen family. The settlers ran over two sheep, and then came out of the truck with clubs in their hands, attacked Barakat Abu Muhsen, hitting him on the legs, and hit, chased and threw stones at the flock. Israeli soldiers and police officers, who arrived at the scene, drove away the other shepherds and suggested the brothers file a complaint at the Ma’ale Efrayim police station. A Palestinian ambulance took Barakat to a hospital in Tubas, where he was treated for bruises and discharged 30 minutes later.

At 7:00 A.M., settlers arrived in the community in ATVs, a car and on foot with a flock of sheep. They brought bags of fodder with them, placed them in front of the tent homes belonging to ‘Ali Daraghmeh and his family and fed their flock. Activists who were present at the scene called the police, which allowed the settlers to carry on. The settlers left only after the flock consumed all the bags of fodder.

Israel’s regime of apartheid and occupation is inextricably bound up in human rights violations. B’Tselem strives to end this regime, as that is the only way forward to a future in which human rights, democracy, liberty and equality are ensured to all people, both Palestinian and Israeli, living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
