On November 8, 2025, dozens of Israeli settlers, backed by soldiers, carried out a widespread attacks in Beita, Burin & other areas. ## **Beita:** International activists and journalists were severely injured after the settlers attacked the olive harvesters and activist protected them on Qamas mountain in the town of Beita, south of Nablus in the West Bank. The assault targeted both Palestinians and those standing with them defending their land from ongoing colonial settlement expansion. About 30 villagers and activists, plus about 10 journalists, had gathered for the harvest when dozens of men descended from the outpost on a hill and launched an attack, beating people with sticks and repeatedly striking Reuters photographer Raneen Sawafta as she tried to protect herself. Palestinian landowners, human rights activists, and journalists witnessed the attack in Beita. According to one activist, settlers had erected an outpost consisting of a single tent – which they named "Harbinger of Peace" – in the middle of the groves, several hundred meters from the pickers. Jonathan Pollak, an Israeli rights activist who witnessed the incident, and was also injured, said to Reuters that about 50 masked settlers were involved, saying those who attacked Sawafta "beat her up without mercy, continuing to stone her while she was on the ground and then continuing to attack everyone who was coming to her help." He said the settlers shouted in Hebrew, including comments such as "Go from there." Reuters Journalist, Ranee Sawafta, was accompanied by Reuters security adviser Grant Bowden who was beaten as he tried to protect her. Her camera equipment was smashed. Both wore helmets and had clear "Press" labels on their protective jackets. Sawafta's helmet had a large dent after the attack. An ambulance took them both for medical checks and treatment at a hospital in the Palestinian city of Nablus. She sustained bruises and fractures. The Al Jazeera film crew was attacked by masked Israeli settlers: Journalist Muhammad Al-Atrash and photographer Luay Asaid were injured. Cameraman Nael Buital, was also injured: his leg was broken and he was transferred to Al-Istshari hospital. Oded Yedaya, principal of the Minshar School of Art, suffered a broken jaw and cheekbone. The Health Ministry said that its medics treated 11 people who sustained injuries after being beaten by Israeli forces and illegal settlers in Beita, noting that their conditions were stable. **Injured:** 1.

That day also saw violence from both settlers and soldiers, resulting in 20 injuries, including one person who was shot by a settler. Beita has been violently repressed for years, leading to the killing of 18 Palestinians since 2020 and of Turkish – American activist Ayşenur Eygi a year ago. Thousands more have been injured during demonstrations and raids). **Testimony of an activist:** The settlers also attacked journalists and Red Crescent volunteers with clubs as they fled. "I tried to help evacuate the wounded," he said. "A 19-year-old Red Crescent volunteer had been hit in the head, lost his glasses, and couldn't run. We helped him out. When I reached the village, I drove to the emergency center and came across another activist who'd been hit in the back of the neck with a rock and was dazed. I drove him there too." **Testimony of Oded Yedaya:** Israeli artist and activist Oded Yedaya was seriously injured when a masked settler hurled a stone at his head, breaking his cheekbone and leaving a deep wound beneath his eye. “He deliberately aimed for the head,” Yedaya said from his hospital bed. His wife added, “If he had thrown a little higher, he would have killed him.”. As former elite soldier who once served with Benjamin Netanyahu, Yedaya believes the attack marks a dangerous turn: “It’s quite possible we’ve reached the moment when settlers are trying to kill Jews.” He describes an atmosphere of impunity: “The situation has deteriorated in the last two years. They have a license for violence, and the army intervenes less.” Yedaya, who has spent two decades documenting protests and Palestinian life, says he has sacrificed his privacy to expose the violence: “Just as we abandon our bodies in demonstrations, I abandoned my privacy for anything that might help or shock.” Despite his injuries, he remains defiant: “It’s a shame so much suffering is needed before change can happen.”  **Testimony of IMS- Palestine:** *On Saturday, November 8, Masked Israeli settlers armed with clubs attacked Palestinian farmers and solidarity activists, with many hospitalized after, in the Jabal Qamas area of Beita, south of Nablus, near the recently established Mevaser Shalom outpost, built on Beita’s confiscated land. After a few hours of successful olive harvest, a group of around 50 settlers, masked and armed with clubs and sticks, descended on the harvesters from the hillside, hurling rocks at them. The assault left 14 people injured and in need of medical attention, including several Palestinian farmers, 3 medical personnel, two of whom suffering head injuries, 4 journalists, and 3 solidarity activists – one of them a US citizen, all of them sustaining head wounds. Reuters journalist Raneen Sawafta was bludgeoned and stoned, even after she had fallen to the ground. Settlers attacked anyone who tried to help her. One solidarity activist suffered a broken cheekbone and jaw. When he reached the Beita clinic before being transferred to an hospital, his shirt was soaked in blood and his head was split open. Despite the Israeli Occupation Forces claimed they had deployed soldiers to the scene to “disperse the confrontation”, eyewitnesses confirm that no Israeli military or police were present where the attack took place.* * **** * ## **In the same time, in Burin**, In the nearby village of Burin, several Palestinian farmers and international activists were injured after being attacked by Israeli settlers while harvesting olives east of the village, according to a statement from the Palestinian Red Crescent. Acccording to B.M. @ireallyhateyou the "peacenik" IDF soldier Yuval Ben Ami who invaded Lebanon with an anti-occupation shirt, was among the protective presence. He was beaten by the settlers while joining the Palestinian olive harvest in Burin. He told them he's a reservist so they yelled at him "It's the last time you betray your brothers! **Statement of The Foreign Press Association (FPA):** An organization representing international media in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza on Monday condemned attacks by Israeli settlers on journalists in the West Bank, urging Israeli authorities to halt the “violence immediately.”. FPA, which represents hundreds of foreign journalists, said it was “appalled” by the recent attacks, especially during this year’s olive harvest: *“Journalists, both local and foreign, have proven to be a clear target as they document an unprecedented level of unchecked violence against Palestinians during this year’s olive harvest,”*. The FPA said that on Saturday, two employees of Reuters wearing clearly marked press vests and helmets were assaulted by masked Israeli civilians armed with clubs and rocks near the Palestinian village of Beita: *“A mob of dozens of settlers beat one of the employees, a female reporter, while she was already on the ground, resulting in severe injuries,”*

On November 6, since dawn, around 200 Israeli soldiers completely besieged al-Mughayyir,northeast of Ramallah, before entering it. According to Marzouq Abu Naim, deputy head of the al-Mughayyir village council, They stormed the village this morning from several directions, deploying military vehicles accompanied by infantry units. They raided a number of homes, detained residents, and interrogated them on the spot. They detained a number of residents whose identities are not yet known and occupied a residential building belonging to Raed Abu Aliya after forcibly evicting its residents. They closed the western entrance to the village with earth mounds, preventing residents from entering or leaving. (the western entrance is currently the only access point to the village after the occupation forces closed the eastern entrance on October 7, 2023) This have prevented employees from going to work and students from attending school and university. The occupation forces also distributed leaflets threatening the villagers.

On November 5, 2025, Israeli forces shot and killed a 15-year-old Palestinian boy at the main entrance to the Palestinian town of Al-Yamoun, northwest of Jenin. Israeli forces in several armored military vehicles entered Al-Yamoun around 10 p.m., roamed through neighborhoods and conducted several patrols within the town, firing live ammunition at Palestinian youths confronting Israeli soldiers. A video showing Murad’s bloodstained cap, pierced by four bullet holes, indicates that the soldiers shot him several times in the head. **According to Defense for Children - Palestine** Murad Fawzi Yousef Abu Seifen, 15, was shot by Israeli forces around 10:45 p.m. on November 5. He was allegedly participated in confrontations with Israeli forces alongside other young Palestinians who were throwing stones and Molotov cocktails toward a heavily armored Israeli military vehicle during an Israeli military incursion into Al-Yamoun when he was shot from a distance of about 60 to 80 meters (197 to 262 feet) away. The Israeli forces approached the spot where Murad had fallen and covered his body with a blanket. They remained near him for around half an hour, during which a Palestinian ambulance tried to reach Murad, but the soldiers stopped it from getting through. The soldiers took Murad body, placed him in a military vehicle, and drove out of the town. Murad’s family received a phone call from the Palestinian Liaison Office around 1 a.m., November 6, informing them that their child had been killed by Israeli forces. As Israeli authorities have confiscated Murad’s body, DCIP is not able to verify the location or number of bullet wounds that Murad sustained. “Israeli forces destroyed evidence of their attack on Murad and transported his body to an unknown location, withholding it from his family,” said Ayed Abu Eqtaish, accountability program director at DCIP. “Even in death, Palestinian children are not safe from Israeli soldiers. We demand that Israeli authorities return Murad’s body to his family immediately.” **Abduction of the Palestinian bodies:** Israeli forces have withheld the bodies of at least 54 Palestinian children since June 2016, according to documentation collected by DCIP. Six of the children’s bodies have since been released to their families, while 48 Palestinian children’s bodies remain withheld by Israeli authorities. Israel’s practice of withholding Palestinian bodies is a form of collective punishment, a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law, and deprives Palestinian families of the ability to lay their children to rest. In September 2019, the Israeli Supreme Court approved the practice of confiscating human remains after several legal challenges to the policy. On November 27, 2019, Israeli Defense Minister Naftali Bennett ordered all bodies of Palestinians alleged to have attacked Israeli citizens or soldiers to be withheld and not returned to their families. Israel is the only country in the world with such a policy of confiscating human remains, according to Adalah.

On November 3, at night, Ahmad Rabhi al-Atrash (32) from the city of Hebron was murdered after being hit in the head by live bullets fired directly at him by an Israeli settler at the northern entrance to the City of Hebron/Al Khalil and along the bypass road. The occupation forces prevented the Red Crescent crews, who were present in the Ras al-Joura area near the bypass road, from reaching him and left him bleeding on the ground until he rose and transported him after summoning his family to identify him to an unknown destination. The Palestinian Red Crescent reports that "a Palestinian was shot by Israeli occupation forces in the Ras al-Joura area, north of Hebron, and Israeli troops are preventing our medical teams from reaching and evacuating him". Three hours later, he was pronounced dead. According to Mistaclim activist account "The terrorist will not be brought to justice, because he is supported by the entire system, which is currently perfecting its expertise in concealing facts.The blood of the Palestinians is permissible." This murder occured nearly two hours of killing a 17 years old palestinian in Beit Furik. On November 4, 2025, in the evening, Israeli forces handed over the body of Ahmad Rubhi Al-Atrash, 32, at the Tarqumiya checkpoint, from where it was transferred to Al-Ahli Hospital in Hebron to complete the legal procedures. "According to family sources, his body is expected to be laid to rest tonight at the Martyrs Cemetery, after family members bid him farewell at their home in the southern area of Hebron". **Name of the martyr:** Martyr Ahmed Ribhi Dais Al-Atrash, 32

Jameel was targeted by a bullet from a distance of 50 to 70 meters (164 to 230 feet) away and struck him in the abdomen. The bullet exited through his back, and he immediately fell to the ground. Jameel was transferred to the emergency room in the Friendship Medical Center, when military vehicles moved towards the entrance of the center, and around six soldiers entered. One of the soldiers took a picture of Jameel, while one of the doctors informed them in English that his condition is critical and that he needed to be transferred to a hospital. The Israeli forces then withdrew from the center and from the town entirely.

Earlier on Friday, settlers also attacked the towns of Beitin and Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah, burning two vehicles and vandalising a mosque by smashing its windows. **Location context:** Kafr Qaddum is in the northern West Bank, in the Qalqilya Governorate. Beit Lid is in the Tulkarm Governorate, also northern West Bank. Ramin is near Beit Lid (north‑east of it) in the Tulkarm Governorate. The corridor between Kafr Qaddum and Beit Lid (including fields/areas like “Al‑Ladain”) is the likely zone where many reported incidents occur. These places lie fairly close to one another in the northern West Bank region. In the Ramin Plain (east of Tulkarm) several new illegal settler outposts have been reported including a new “pastoral outpost” was established on the lands of Ramin village in early January 2025 (Basin No. 9, Plot No. 74) with mobile residential units on land owned by a Palestinian farmer.

Yamen and his friends were walking near the southern entrance, which has been closed for nearly two years by order of the Israeli forces after they erected earth mounds there. Yamen and his friends were surprised to find a group of Israeli soldiers hiding behind the earth mounds, after which they fired directly at the children with about ten bullets from a distance of 50 meters (164 feet) away. Yamen Hamed was shot in the chest and immediately fell to the ground, bleeding for about half an hour, surrounded by Israeli occupation forces who opened fire and prevented residents and an ambulance from approaching him.

The ambulance managed to approach Yamen and pronounced him dead before his body was transferred to the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah. Upon arrival at the hospital, Yamen's father reported that his son's body showed clear signs of assault, including fractures in his fingers and toes, indicating he may have been subjected to torture, violence, or dragging while in the soldiers' custody." **Name of the martyr:** Yamen Samed Youssef Hamed, 15 y/o
