Occupied Palestine (QNN)- Israeli occupation authorities and colonial
settlers carried out more than 700 attacks against Palestinians and their
properties in the first month of the new year, said the Wall and Settlement
Resistance Commission.

In its monthly report issued on Wednesday on the Israeli violations and
colonial expansion, the Commission said these attacks ranged from a direct
assault on people, vandalism of property, leveling of lands, uprooting
trees, seizure and demolition of property, closures, barriers, and physical
injuries.

Most of these attacks were in Nablus (131), followed by Jenin (128), then
Bethlehem (105).

Moayyad Shaban, the head of the commission, said that the number of attacks
carried out by settlers amounted to 150 and that they attempted to
establish six new settlement outposts in different areas of the occupied
West Bank but mainly in Nablus, with 72 attacks.

He said that in January, the Israeli occupation authorities issued 55
demolition and stop construction orders under the pretext of construction
without a permit, most of which were concentrated in Hebron, Bethlehem, and
Salfit.

He pointed out that the occupation forces and settlers razed more than 541
dunums of Palestinian lands in Salfit and Nablus with the aim of seizing
the lands and turning them over to the settlers.

Shaban said that 81 demolitions for 94 homes and commercial facilities were
recorded this month concentrating mainly in Jerusalem, Jericho, and Hebron.

The report documented the destruction of 758 trees by settlers, most of
which were olive trees, concentrated in Ramallah with the uprooting of 285
trees, 200 trees in Nablus, and 100 trees in Hebron.

Shaaban noted that the occupation authorities had approved three new plans
to expand colonial settlements in the illegal settlements of Emmanuel,
built on Salfit lands, and Gilo, built on Bethlehem lands.

He said the Israeli cabinet issued 27 decisions targeting Palestinians with
the aim of making life more difficult for them, some of which amount to a
war crime.
