HEBRON, November 29, 2025 (WAFA) – Six Palestinians, including a pregnant woman, were injured on Saturday evening after Israeli colonists attacked residents in the Hawara area near the town of Halhul, north of Hebron.

WAFA correspondent reported that armed colonists, protected by Israeli soldiers, attacked homes in the Hawara area, causing injuries and bruises to six members of the Karja family. The victims received on-site medical treatment, and the pregnant woman was transferred to the Red Crescent Hospital in Halhul for further care.

In a related incident, Israeli forces assaulted a Palestinian citizen and detained four others in Beit Oula town, west of Hebron.

Israeli colonists regularly carry out attacks against Palestinian communities across the West Bank, particularly in areas surrounding settlements. These attacks often include physical assaults, property damage, and obstruction of farmers trying to access their lands. 

Human rights groups say the violence is frequently carried out with the backing or protection of Israeli occupation forces, and is part of a broader strategy to expand settlements and intimidate Palestinian civilians.
