Israeli colonists attacks flour-loaded truck south of Nablus

NABLUS, Thursday, May 23, 2024 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists today attacked a flour-loaded truck close to the town of Beita, south of the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, according to local sources.

They said that a mob of colonists intercepted the truck loaded with flour sacks near Sbeih Mount and sabotaged part of the shipment.

Colonist mobs have been attacking trucks for being suspected of carrying humanitarian aid to the blockaded war-torn Gaza Strip.

In one incident, video footages have gone viral on social media showing colonists throwing boxes of much-needed supplies on the ground and setting at least a truck ablaze.

The Nablus governorate is dotted with at least 13 colonies and 35 colonial outposts, mostly notorious for their hardcore religious colonists, as there are over 800,000 Israeli settlers living in the West Bank, including Jerusalem.

Tried before the International Court of Justice for genocide against Palestinians, Israel has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since October 7, killing at least 35,800 Palestinians and injuring over 80,200 others.

Moreover, at least 7,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes throughout the Strip.

Palestinian and international organizations say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.

The Israeli aggression has also resulted in the forceful displacement of nearly two million people from all over the Gaza Strip, with the vast majority of the displaced forced into the densely crowded southern city of Rafah near the border with Egypt – in what has become Palestine’s largest mass exodus since the 1948 Nakba.
