JERICHO, April 14, 2025 (WAFA) –Israeli colonists attacked on Monday Palestinian Bedouin citizens and shepherds near the village of Ein ad-Duyuk at-Tahta west of Jericho, and pelted their homes with stones, according to local sources.

Sources told WAFA that a number of colonists attacked Bedouin dwellings on a mountaintop in Ein ad-Duyuk at-Tahta, pelting them with stones. However, no injuries were reported.

Later in the evening, Israeli colonists also attacked Palestinian vehicles north of Jericho.

Local sources told WAFA that Israeli colonists pelted civilian cars with stones on the road near Ein al-Auja, causing damage to at least one vehicle belonging to a Palestinian citizen.

Meanwhile, in the northern Jordan Valley, a Palestinian shepherd was attacked by colonists on Monday evening while grazing his cattle. According to local sources, the colonists assaulted a local resident in the Jabaris area, stole two of his calves, and killed a third by running it over.

Violence by Israeli colonists against Palestinians and their properties has surged since October 7, 2023, drawing widespread international condemnation. In response, several countries have imposed sanctions on colonists accused of such attacks in the West Bank.
