4 Palestinians injured in West Bank due to attacks by Zionist settlers, Israeli occupation forces

WEST BANK, Feb. 21 (YPA) – Various areas across the occupied West Bank witnessed a surge in field tensions on Saturday, resulting in the injuring of four Palestinians, including two children, as a result of simultaneous attacks carried out by the Israeli occupation army and groups of Zionist settlers.

The attacks included burning property and large-scale military incursions.

In Ramallah, a young man and a child were shot by settlers in the village of Al-Mughayyir, while other settlers set fire to an agricultural room in the neighboring village of Abu Falah.

In Nablus, a 14-year-old child was wounded by live ammunition during a raid on the town of Beit Furik. Additionally, civilian vehicles were targeted with gunfire and vandalism by occupation forces.

In Tulkarm, Israeli occupation vehicles raided the towns of Bal’a, Anabta, and Deir al-Ghusun, accompanied by intensive reconnaissance drone flights and the setting up of military checkpoints that obstructed traffic.

In Hebron, the occupation forces detained a Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) ambulance crew in Masafer Yatta, confiscating their phones and vehicle keys while they were attempting to treat a victim of a settler attack.

These incidents occur amid an escalating frequency of organized settler attacks under military protection, further exacerbating the volatile security situation across West Bank cities and towns.
