JORDAN VALLEY, June 2, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists on Monday evening assaulted Palestinian passengers at the Ein al-Hilweh junction in the northern Jordan Valley, according to a local official.

Mahdi Daraghmeh, head of al-Maleh Village Council, said that colonists attacked passengers in a vehicle at the junction.

There was no immediate information on any material damage or casualties.

Colonists’ violence against Palestinians and their property is routine in the West Bank and is rarely prosecuted by Israeli authorities.

Colonists’ violence includes property and mosque arsons, stone-throwing, uprooting of crops and olive trees, and attacks on vulnerable homes, among others.

Approximately 1 million Israeli colonists are living in colonies in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in violation of international law.
