Colonists set fire to Palestinian dwellings in Khallat al-Sidra community northeast of occupied Jerusalem

JERUSALEM, January 28, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists late Wednesday night set fire to several Palestinian citizens’ dwellings in the Khallat al-Sidra Bedouin community, near the village of Mukhmas, northeast of occupied Jerusalem.

The Jerusalem Governorate reported that colonists attacked the community and set fire to several Palestinian citizens’ homes, after having earlier blocked the only road leading to the area.

Later, Israeli occupation forces stormed the community with several military vehicles.

In recent days, the community has been subjected to repeated attacks by colonists, including assaults on several citizens and foreign solidarity activists, resulting in injuries, the destruction of multiple homes and animal shelters, the vandalism and seizure of solar panels and surveillance cameras, and the burning of dwellings and vehicles.

Israeli occupation forces had previously forced several foreign solidarity activists to evacuate the community.
