Palestinian media outlets report that settlers set fire this evening to a Palestinian home in Khirbet al-Halawa, in the South Hebron Hills, located within IDF Firing Zone 918.
No casualties have been reported.
Four years ago, the High Court of Justice ruled that Palestinian residents living there had begun residing in the area only after it was declared a firing zone and could therefore be evacuated. However, Israel has not officially carried out their eviction from the site.
Now: Settlers set fire to two structures in the village of Halawe in Masafer Yatta.
The village is located in an area designated by the apartheid regime as “Firing Zone 918.” Villages in this area have been under increasing pressure since several outposts were established in it pic.twitter.com/mHs5xRrDVv— מחוץ לעדר/ kivsa shchora (@masafering) March 11, 2026
