HEBRON, November 8, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists attacked Palestinian residents today in the area of Tal Ma'in, east of the town of Yatta, south of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank, according to local sources.

Local anti-settlement activist Osama Makhamreh said that colonists from nearby outposts released their livestock onto land owned by the Makhamreh family and physically assaulted the farmers while they were on their property.

Israeli forces later broke into the area, detained three Palestinians, including two brothers, and subjected them to further abuse following the attack by armed colonists.

After the soldiers released them, medical teams transferred one of the detained youths to a hospital for treatment. The remaining two brothers were treated in the field by Palestinian Red Crescent medics. Their injuries were described as ranging from moderate to minor.

The area where the assault occurred is among the areas most targeted by colonists in the occupied West Bank. Repeated attacks, alongside land seizures and the establishment of new outposts, have intensified pressures on Palestinian residents and their agricultural land.
