The head of the Wall and Settlement Resistance Committee, Moayed Shaaban, said that the Israeli authorities and colonizers carried out 1,593 attacks during the month of last November.

Shaaban explained in the commission’s monthly report on “violations of the Israel and colonial expansion measures” that the Israeli forces carried out 1,407 attacks, while the colonists carried out 186 attacks.

He pointed out that the violations were concentrated in Hebron Governorate, with 291 attacks, followed by Jerusalem Governorate, with 203 attacks, and then Nablus Governorate, with 200 attacks.

He stated that the settlers’ attacks were concentrated in Hebron Governorate, with 63 attacks, 38 in Nablus, and 23 in Ramallah, the most prominent of which was the shooting of the young man Tawfiq Ajaq in the Eastern Farm.

Shaaban pointed out that the colonists stole 47 heads of livestock, 3 agricultural tractors, and two tents, while the Israeli forces seized 82 vehicles, 7 surveillance camera recordings, 15 bulldozers and trucks, and 19 cases of theft of money and gold jewelry were recorded. 60 heads of livestock were seized.

He pointed out that the colonists' attacks also led to the uprooting and burning of a total of 836 trees, including 473 olive trees, in the governorates of Bethlehem, Qalqilya, Nablus, and Hebron, in addition to stealing more than 70 heads of cows. They also carried out 9 thefts of farmers' equipment, 3 mobile homes, and an agricultural tractor. .

He added that the Israeli authorities carried out 58 demolition operations, affecting 62 facilities, including 22 occupied homes, two uninhabited homes, 16 agricultural facilities, and others, and were concentrated in the governorates of Hebron, Jerusalem, Qalqilya, and Bethlehem. They also issued 26 notices to demolish facilities concentrated in the governorates of Jerusalem, Nablus, and Hebron during the same period.

Shaaban stated that the recent attacks have begun to take a new and dangerous form, represented by two additional aspects. The first is the heavy fines that have been imposed by the so-called “Settlement Council” on Palestinian farmers and shepherds, amounting to hundreds of thousands of shekels, in a new mechanism to restrict citizens and forcing them to leave, and secondly, with the military orders that the occupation forces have begun to disseminate in order to seize lands, and in order to implement the idea of buffer zones previously proposed by the extremist Bezlael Smotrich.

Shaaban confirmed that the two recent orders that targeted the lands of Deir Istiya in Salfit Governorate, specifically those surrounding the Rafafa settlement, and the Western Farm in Ramallah Governorate, which surrounds the Harasha hotspot, do not only seize the targeted land, but rather form a buffer zone over vast areas of land that prevent citizens from accessing them. .

Shaaban warned of the new policy followed by the occupying state these days of preventing citizens from accessing the lands according to military orders, which is completely inconsistent with the applicable international laws that govern the work of the occupation in the occupied land, stressing that these measures have prevented citizens from reaching more than half a million dunums of their land as a result of colonial attacks and the systematic closure of Palestinian villages and cities by the Israeli forces in the recent period.
