HEBRON, August 11, 2025 (WAFA) - Several Palestinian residents were injured on Monday evening in an attack carried out by extremist colonists on the towns of Halhul and Surif, in the Hebron governorate.

WAFA correspondent reported that several armed colonists, under the protection of Israeli soldiers, attacked citizens in the towns of Halhul and Surif, beating them severely. The attack caused several residents to suffer bruises and contusions across their bodies. They were all treated at the scene.

Colonists also destroyed a grape harvest belonging to the Karja family in the Hawawer area of Halhul town and stole another harvest.

Since the start of the Israeli aggression on October 7, 2023, colonists’ violence against Palestinians and their properties has sharply increased. This indiscriminate violence targeting Palestinian civilians and their property has drawn widespread condemnation. In response, several countries have imposed sanctions on Israeli colonists accused of committing such violent acts in the West Bank.
