JERUSALEM, November 8, 2026 (WAFA) – On Sunday evening, colonists attacked residents' homes in a Bedouin community in the al-Tibna area, near Khan al-Ahmar, southeast of occupied Jerusalem.
The colonists pelted the residents with stones, but the local inhabitants confronted them and forced them to withdraw.
The Jerusalem Governorate reported that the attack originated from one of the settlement outposts established in the area and targeted the homes of residents within the community. It noted that the local inhabitants confronted the colonists, compelling them to leave the site.
The Bedouin community in the vicinity of Khan al-Ahmar is frequently subjected to assaults by colonists—including attacks on residential clusters and the harassment of inhabitants—as part of ongoing pressure aimed at displacing Bedouin communities from the area.
The Khan al-Ahmar region is a primary target for settlement expansion, given its strategic location east of Jerusalem, along the road connecting Jerusalem and Jericho.
