WEST BANK, (PIC)

Groups of extremist Jewish settlers reportedly carried out on Saturday
attacks on Palestinian citizens and property in different West Bank areas.

According to local media sources, a horde of settlers took over a public
park in Qaryut village in southern Nablus.

Local activist Bashar al-Qaryuti told WAFA news agency that settlers seized
a building under construction in the middle of the park, which the village
council was building for entertainment purposes, adding that the settlers
placed an Israeli flag over the building.

Qaryuti also said that those settlers gathered in the early morning hours
on the outskirts of the village before entering swaths of land classified
as B as part of their efforts to annex more Palestinian-owned lands in the
area.

A group of settlers also took over a spring on the outskirts of Qaryut
village and spread out on nearby hills under military protection.

Local sources said that some local residents from the village were injured
when they tried to fend off the settlers and prevent them from seizing the
spring.

In Salfit, other settlers assaulted a group of Palestinian farmers in an
agricultural area near Kafr ad-Dik town.

Local sources told WAFA that settlers threw stones at two farmers and
injured them as they tried to prevent them from destroying an agricultural
room belonging to another farmer in Khirbet Susya area in the north of Kafr
ad-Dik.

In Jenin, there was another settler attack on citizens and officials
working for the village council of Dahr al-Abd in Ya’bad area.

Local officials reported that armed settlers brutalized employees working
for the village council, detained them, seized their gear, prevented them
from building an agricultural road, and forced them to leave the area at
gunpoint.
