Colonists set fire to vehicle, tent as occupation forces detain two minors near Ramallah

 

RAMALLAH, September 29 – Colonists burned two vehicles and a tent, attempted to set fire to a home, and spray-painted racist slogans on residents' houses in the village of Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, early Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces arrested two minors during a raid on the village.

Marzouq Abu Na’im, Deputy Head of the Al-Mughayyir Village Council, told WAFA that colonists attacked the village and set fire to two vehicles—one belonging to Jihad Al-Na’san and the other to Musa Muhammad Abu Aliya.

He added that the colonists also burned a tent belonging to Abu Aliya, spray-painted racist slogans on his sons' homes, and prevented residents from reaching the site to extinguish the flames.

Abu Na’im noted that occupation forces arrested two minors—Moataz Haitham Abu Na’im and Khaled Aref Abu Aliya, both 16 years old—during the raid on the village.

On Monday evening, colonists had attacked the home of Abdul Rahim Haj Muhammad in Al-Mughayyir. This coincided with clashes at the village entrance and colonists firing live ammunition at young men on the eastern side of the village, according to local sources.

Additionally, on September 26, the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission documented a colonists' attack on an ambulance and the theft of agricultural equipment from a sheep farm west of the village, as well as a home raid involving the firing of tear gas canisters.

The village of Al-Mughayyir is witnessing continuous attacks by colonists, alongside repeated incursions by occupation forces; recent attacks have involved the targeting of residents, their homes, vehicles, and property.
