A violent incident occurred in the Palestinian village of Jalud, located in the north of the occupied West Bank, during the night of Monday, September 29, to Tuesday. According to estimates, between 100 and 150 Israeli settlers attacked the homes of a Palestinian family that was attempting to return to their property under the protection of the Israeli military. The settlers reportedly targeted the family's homes despite the presence of soldiers, destroying several houses in the process.
A Palestinian resident described how more than 100 Israeli settlers attacked his home, causing significant damage. In addition to the targeted homes, other buildings and vehicles in the village of Jalud were also damaged or set on fire. This incident has drawn rare criticism from some Israeli officials, who have expressed concern over the violence committed by settlers.
The Palestinian family had been granted permission to return to their home by the Israeli Supreme Court after the property had been occupied by Israeli settlers for over two months. The return was supposed to take place under the protection of the Israeli army. However, upon their arrival, the settlers violently opposed the return, burning the homes and throwing stones at the soldiers accompanying the family.
The incident highlights the ongoing tensions between Israeli settlers and Palestinian residents in the occupied West Bank. It also underscores the challenges faced by the Israeli military in maintaining order and protecting both settlers and Palestinians in such sensitive situations.
