TULKARM, November 11, 2025 (WAFA) – Groups of colonists this evening carried out a wide-scale attack on industrial and agricultural facilities near Beit Lid town, east of Tulkarem, causing large fires and injuring several Palestinians, according to local sources.

Sources told WAFA that colonists set fire to several Palestinian vehicles in the industrial area known as Al-Lada’in near Beit Lid, including four trucks belonging to Al-Juneidi Dairy Factory, and caused damage to the factory.

The attack also extended to agricultural lands, metal sheds, and tents belonging to a Bedouin community of two to five families in the area. Colonists additionally threw stones at residents, causing significant property damage and injuring at least two people with head wounds.

Sources added that large Israeli forces stormed the area to protect the colonists and pursued residents who attempted to confront the attack.

Civil defense and ambulance teams rushed to the scene to extinguish the fires and treat the injured, amid ongoing tension in the area.

This attack comes amid a surge in colonist assaults in Tulkarem Governorate, which occur repeatedly under the protection of Israeli forces.

In the aftermath of the attack, Tulkarem Governor Abdullah Kmeil called for the formation of local patrol committees composed of Palestinians and Palestinian Authority employees in their respective communities across the governorate.

The governor urged the international community and human rights organizations to halt this crime against civilians and the ongoing aggression by colonists, noting that such attacks, including setting vehicles and property on fire, cutting down olive trees, and targeting farmers, are repeatedly carried out as part of the continued crimes against our people across all areas.
