HEBRON, June 11, 2026 (WAFA) – Armed Israeli colonists attacked Palestinian farmers, stole agricultural equipment, and contaminated water wells in separate incidents in the Hebron governorate on Thursday, according to local sources.
Activist Osama Makhamreh said a group of armed colonists from the colony of Susia attacked a Palestinian farmer while he was harvesting wheat and barley crops in the Khallet al-Hummus area south of Yatta. The colonists assaulted him and stole his agricultural equipment.
In a separate incident northeast of the town of Sa'ir, colonists contaminated privately owned water wells with unidentified substances and entered the wells to swim in them.
Residents of the area have been subjected to near-daily provocations by Israeli colonists, including nighttime raids, destruction of trees and crops, theft of property, and assaults on local residents. Two residents were previously wounded by live ammunition during a colonist attack on homes in the area in March.
