HEBRON, May 15, 2025 (WAFA) – Armed Israeli colonists launched an attack this evening on Palestinian vehicles and blocked roads leading to Masafer Yatta region, south of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank, according to local sources.

Osama Makhamra, a local activist, told WAFA that armed groups of colonists, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, closed the northern entrance to Masafer Yatta and other roads in the region. This key route serves a large number of villages, hamlets, and residential communities in the region.

The colonists  set tires on fire in the middle of the road, attacked passing Palestinian vehicles, and prevented residents from reaching their homes.

There were no confirmed reports of casualties in the aftermath of the assault.
