Palestinians report overnight settler attacks in Huwara, in the West Bank

Israeli settlers broke into the Palestinian West Bank town of Huwara overnight and attacked its residents, according to Palestinian reports.

Video footage purportedly captured during the incident shows the settlers roaming the streets of the Nablus-area town, before fleeing down the road as residents fling stones at them.

According to reports, the settlers attempted to attack the town’s homes, and a Palestinian child was said to have been injured in the violence.

The residents of Huwara have endured heavy violence at the hands of extremist Israeli settlers in the past. In early 2023, dozens of settlers rampaged through the town, setting fire to homes and cars and killing a Palestinian man in response to a deadly terror shooting in the area.
