BETHLEHEM, January 30, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, stormed the Solomon’s Pools area located between the town of Al-Khader and the village of Artas, south of Bethlehem, on Friday.
Local sources told WAFA that a group of colonists broke into the area and performed rituals, while Israeli forces sealed off the area completely and blocked Palestinian traffic toward the village of Artas and the Bethlehem city center.
The sources noted an escalation in repeated raids by colonists and Israeli occupation forces on the Solomon’s Pools area in recent months.
