JERICHO, April 22, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists assaulted a Palestinian man on Tuesday while he was driving near the Al-Auja spring area north of the city of Jericho, according to local sources.

Sources informed WAFA that the colonists intercepted the vehicle of a resident in the Arab Mleihat community, physically attacked him, and pepper-sprayed him in the face. The assault occurred under the protection of Israeli occupation soldiers, who were present at the scene but failed to intervene.

It is noteworthy that the Al-Auja spring area has been the site of recurring attacks by colonists targeting Palestinian residents.
