NABLUS, January 25, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli colonist militias attacked Palestinian farmers in the town of Aqraba and a home in the village of Duma, both located south of Nablus, while continuing their assaults on defenseless Palestinian residents in the Masafer Yatta area, south of Hebron, on Sunday.
Local sources reported that colonists targeted farmers in the Mahfuriya area south of Aqraba while they were working their lands. They also attacked the home of citizen Munther Shreida in the Al-Shajra area of Duma, causing damage to the windows.
Meanwhile, colonists continued chasing and assaulting Palestinian civilians in Masafer Yatta, detaining several people and attempting to steal their livestock.
Media activist Osama Makhamreh said that colonists dressed in military-style uniforms detained six citizens near Khirbet al-Fukhit, a hamlet in Masafer Yatta, abusing them before releasing them.
Under army protection, colonists also chased shepherds in the Rajum Ulei area, driving their livestock into crops and trees and conducting provocative tours near homes and residential gatherings.
Late Saturday night, several colonists attempted to steal sheep from the herd of citizen Imad Houshiyeh in Khirbet al-Markaz, a nearby hamlet, but protection committees and local residents prevented the theft.
