Among the most notable attacks were those against guards and staff at the solid waste landfill in Beit Ijza, northwest of Jerusalem, as well as the assault on a school in Zanouta, east of Dhahiriya in southern Hebron. Other incidents included attacks on citizens in the Naba al-Auja area, sabotage of farmers' water lines near Jericho, and assaults on vehicles in northern Hebron, northeast of Ramallah, and towns like Sinjil, Turmus'ayya, and Beita near Nablus.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also documented settlers' efforts to fence off and cultivate Palestinian land for the purpose of seizing it in the northern Jordan Valley. Additionally, the continued assaults on citizens in the Masafer Yatta area south of Hebron were noted.
The ministry stressed that these settler attacks occur under Israeli political cover, with direct protection and supervision from the Israeli occupation forces, which intervene to suppress Palestinian civilians when they attempt to defend themselves and their property.
The ministry confirmed that these attacks are part of policies aimed at ethnic cleansing, genocide, displacement, and annexation, which the Palestinian people are enduring in the Gaza Strip and occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem.
The statement further emphasized that international responses to these settler attacks have been insufficient and do not match the scale of the crimes being committed. The ministry reiterated its call for the imposition of international sanctions against the entire colonial settlement system and for serious international pressure on the Israeli government to dismantle settler terrorist cells operating on Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank, pursue and arrest their members, and dry up their sources of funding.
