HEBRON, December 4, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces on Thursday detained four Palestinians in the town of Dura, southwest of Hebron, while armed colonists held and assaulted several residents in the Masafer Yatta area.
WAFA correspondent said that military vehicles stormed Dura from the southern entrance and advanced toward the town center. Soldiers fired stun grenades and tear gas toward residents during the raid, before detaining four young men whose identities were not yet known. The forces then withdrew from the town.
In a separate incident, local activist Osama Mkhamrah said that armed colonists detained several members of the Al-Adra family in the Rujum Ali area of Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron. When Israeli forces arrived, they continued to hold the residents and subjected them to abuse.
In the nearby village of Khirbet Um al-Kheir, Israeli forces prevented a farmer from reaching and plowing his land. Also in the nearby Bedouin community of Al-Zuwaidin, colonists from the Shimon outpost damaged crops and broke fruit trees belonging to a local resident.
