NABLUS, May 27, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists on Wednesday evening attacked an injured a Palestinian in the Beita town, south of the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, according to local sources.
They said that colonists barged their way into the Qamas area on the town outskirts, and attacked a civilian, pepper-spraying him in the face.
The casualty was rushed to a nearby medical center for treatment.
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.
