JERUSALEM, November 1, 2025 (WAFA) – Two Israeli colonists assaulted Palestinian shop owners in occupied Jerusalem’s Old City on Saturday, while Israeli forces detained four Palestinian citizens, local sources said.
According to the sources, the colonists attacked traders and their shops in the Old City, as Israeli forces detained four members of the Abu Sbaih family after forcing them to close their stores on Al-Wad Street.
In a related incident, colonists also targeted Palestinian-owned land in the town of Umm Tuba, south of occupied Jerusalem.
The attacks come amid an escalation of violence by Israeli colonists across the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem, particularly during the olive harvest season, as Palestinians continue to face property damage, assaults, and forced closures under heavy Israeli military protection.
