JERUSALEM, December 9, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists on Tuesday evening vandalized Palestinians’ farmland near the al-Mintar Bedouin community, southeast of the occupied West Bank city of Jerusalem, according to the Jerusalem Governorate.

It said that colonists squatted on and ploughed Palestinian farmers’ lands near the community.

The vandals came from the nearby colonial outpost of Boaz, notorious for frequent attacks against Palestinian civilians and their properties.

Colonists’ violence against Palestinians and their property is routine in the West Bank and is rarely prosecuted by Israeli authorities.

Colonists’ violence includes property and mosque arsons, stone-throwing, uprooting of crops and olive trees, and attacks on vulnerable homes, among others.

Approximately 1 million Israeli colonists are living in colonies in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in violation of international law.
