On November 18 to 19, Israeli forces imposed a siege on the town of Beit Ummar, north of al-Khalil.The operation is supported by significant military reinforcements that were deployed toward the town in the early hours of the morning after sealing all of the town’s entrances with dirt mounds and iron gates, restricting movement in and out of the area. The operation came hours after an Israeli settler was killed and three others were wounded, one critically, in a ramming and stabbing attack at the Gush Etzion junction in the southern West Bank. The attack was carried out by two Palestinians, one of them from Beit Ummar,Walid Mohammed Sabarneh , who were shot dead by Israeli forces. The Israeli forces detained more than 100 Palestinians, converting the town's main soccer field into a makeshift interrogation center and have begun gathering detainees there. They raided dozens of homes, including the Sabarneh family’s house, damaging its contents, then sealed it after forcing the family to evacuate. The home was welded shut with iron sheets, family members were assaulted and the property was damaged following on-site questioning. According to Wafa, these raids were accompanied by acts of abuse against residents and the deliberate destruction of their property and belongings, after the occupation forces imposed a tight siege on the town, declaring it a closed military zone and sealing off all entrances and exits, thus preventing the movement of residents. The arrest and detention operation affected more than 40 citizens, including two women, who were held in the town's stadium.

On 18 November 2025, an Israeli airstrike hit the Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp, on the outskirts of Saida, at around 9.30 p.m. on Tuesday night, in southern Lebanon. The strike hit near a parking lot by the Khalid bin al-Walid Mosque, in a densely populated part of the camp. The drone fired on a vehicle surrounded by pedestrians, many of whom were returning from evening prayers. A football/sports field where young people were gathered were alos targeted: "an open sports field frequented by young people from the camp, known to all residents, and that those targeted were a group of boys who were on the field at the time of the strike." According to the state news agency NNA, three missiles were fired into the center. Eyewitnesses described a horrific scene: people “just playing … suddenly the sound was terrifying, everyone fell. There were no weapons.” Local sources reported that emergency services worked under very difficult conditions, evacuating the wounded into hospitals in Sidon. The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that 13 Palestinian refugees were killed and dozens more wounded. The victims were all registered Palestinian refugees, descendants of families displaced during the Nakba in 1948. On November 19, search and rescue operations have ended at the site stuck by Israel: the death toll stands at 14. Israeli military’s Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee said it struck members of the Palestinian armed group Hamas who were operating in a training compound in the refugee camp: “When we say we will not tolerate any threat on our northern border, this means all terrorist groups operating in the region,”. “We will continue to act forcefully against Hamas’s attempts to establish a foothold in Lebanon and eliminate its elements that threaten our security.” Hamas strongly rejects the claim, stating the strike hit a civilian “sports field” / indoor football field, not a military site. **Reactions:** Hamas condemned it as a “brutal assault on our unarmed Palestinian people.” The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) called it a “brutal Zionist aggression” and challenged claims of military justification. **Ceasefire violation:** Hamas and some local commentators see this as a violation or escalation. The strike is one of Israel's deadliest since the so-called ceasefire deal went into effect on Nov. 27, 2024. **Why Ain al-Hilweh Is Significant?** Ain al-Hilweh is the biggest Palestinian camp in Lebanon, with a very dense population, home to over 70,000 Palestinian refugees, and has long suffered from overcrowding, poverty, and limited access to Lebanese state services. The camp is not fully controlled by the Lebanese state; various Palestinian factions (including Hamas, Fatah, Islamist groups) have influence. In 2023, there were major clashes in the camp between Islamist groups and Fatah, resulting in dozens of deaths. There have also been past Israeli strikes. For example, in October 2024, an Israeli strike reportedly killed six Lebanese (some children) in Ain al-Hilweh.

On November 18, 2025, Al Jazeera photographer Fadi Yassin was injured in his legs, after Israeli occupation soldiers shot him while he was performing his work near Nour Shams camp in Tulkarm Northern West Bank Occupied. According to the testimony of his colleague, Al Jazeera correspondent Laith Jaar, they covered a protest organized by displaced citizens to demand the return to their homes in the camp, while an Israeli sniper opened fire directly on the demonstrators, wounding photographer Fadi Yassin with bullets in his legs.

A child, who was also present in the area, was also injured by shrapnel from live bullets. During the same event, Israeli soldiers detained Roya TV cameraman Mahmoud Fawzi after assaulting him. It was the second protest, since the previous, where hundreds of Palestinian residents of Nour Shams camp demand the return to their homes in the camp from which they were forcibly displaced 10 months ago. **On November 19, his colleague, Laith Jaar states with a picture from the hospital:** "“Praise be to God, our colleague Fadi Yassin is in good health. He needs treatment due to damage to the muscles of his legs caused by live ammunition fired at him by the Israeli army yesterday during coverage.

On November 17, 2025, in the evening, extensive violence erupted in the Palestinian village of Al-Jab’a, southwest of Bethlehem, after dozens of extremist Jewish settlers entered the village and set fire to homes and vehicles. They attacked homes, set vehicles on fire, and vandalized property. Video documentation shows settlers setting fire to vehicles and throwing stones before fleeing. According to the head of Al-Jab’a council, Diab Masha’la, settlers broke into the village, attacked several houses, burned resident-owned cars. There are contradictory accounts — some sources claim two Palestinians were injured, but others (including local officials) say there were no injuries. Israeli security forces (IDF, Border Police, and Police) were deployed to the area. No suspects were detained at the time of reporting. According to Israeli Army Radio, dozens of settlers broke into the village and began setting fire to Palestinian homes and cars, allegedly in retaliation for the dismantling of an illegal settler outpost and clashes in the Gush Etzion area earlier in the day. The Israeli source also reported that large Israeli forces were heading to the village to regain control of the situation, adding that initial reports indicated the burning of one home and four Palestinian vehicles, along with the injury of a Palestinian citizen. **Context:** Al-Jab’a (Jab’a) is a Palestinian village in the central West Bank, about 15 km southwest of Bethlehem and 17 km north of Hebron. It lies roughly 3 km east of the Green Line and is surrounded by Israeli settlements of the Gush Etzion bloc. It is very likely that the rioters, or at least most of them, came from Bat Ayin and its outposts. It is the closest and most violent settlement in the area, but it cannot be ruled out that some of them came from other nearby settlements and outposts. The attack occurred shortly after the evacuation of the illegal outpost Tzur Mashgabi in Gush Etzion. **IDF statement:** The IDF confirmed that Israeli civilians vandalized and set fire to homes and cars. Security forces were “jumped to the scene". Searchs for suspects were ongoing, incident still active. It warned that such settler violence "distracts forces from counter-terrorism duties". **Statement of the Defense Minister Israel Katz:** Responding for the first time after days of silence regarding widespread settler attacks, he condemned “violent anarchists” harming soldiers and Palestinians. He promised no leniency for violent settlers and a new government decision soon, granting legal tools and budget to address settler violence. However, he reiterated his support for expanding settlements but “within the law.” **English statement of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:** He issued a condemnation only in English on his official account, calling the attackers “a handful of extremists.” and saying Israel “will act with full force” against settler attacks on Palestinians and soldiers.

On 11 November 2025, dozens of masked Israeli settlers attacked and set fire to Palestinian industrial facilities and property, the al-Juneidi dairy factory, including four trucks laden with products, in the “Ladain” area between the villages of Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalqilya, and Beit Lid, east of Tulkarm, injuring four Palestinians. Several vehicles and buildings were set on fire, including, according to reports, the Al-Junaidi plastics factory. The settlers attacked the villages Deir Sharaf, setting fire to farmland, tin shacks and tents belonging to a Bedouin community. This is at least the second massive attack in this area for 15 days. The last pogrom occured, in two waves on October 31 and targeted several vehicles in the same plain. This time, a number of Palestinians were injured, and the full extent of the damage and casualties is still unclear, though it appears to be unusually severe even compared to the attacks of last October. This time, exceptionnaly, Israeli police said that four Israelis were arrested in what it described as “extremist violence" while the Israeli military said four Palestinians were wounded. The Israeli army intervened, forcing the settlers to flee to a nearby industrial zone, where they attacked soldiers and damaged a military vehicle, while police arrested four settlers, a rare occurrence given the usual impunity for such attacks. Police and Israel’s Shin Bet internal security agency said they were investigating : *"Soldiers were dispatched to the area of the Beit Lid and Deir Sharaf villages following a report of dozens of masked Israeli civilians who attacked Palestinians and set fire to property in the area,". * Palestinian official Muayyad Shaaban said the attacks were part of a campaign to drive Palestinians from their land and accused Israel of giving the settlers protection and immunity. Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned the incident as “shocking and serious,” urging authorities to act decisively and strengthen the IDF, while Maj Gen Avi Bluth, top Israeli military official in the West Bank, called the violence “unacceptable.” The attack is part of a broader surge in settler violence with 260 attacks recorded in October 2025 alone, the deadliest month since 2006. Human rights groups and the UN have warned that settlers are acting in a “permissive environment,” accelerating the displacement of Palestinians, often with tacit support from key Israeli ministers, including Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, who have helped loosen gun regulations and establish “civilian guard units.” Residents like Mahmoud Edeis of Beit Lid expressed fear and frustration, noting that *“at any moment something could happen … This can’t go on,” highlighting the ongoing climate of insecurity despite official condemnations. The attacks and their impunity have drawn international outcry, including from the UN, which has criticized Israeli authorities for investigating violence against Palestinians only “in extremely rare cases.”*

On November 8, in the evening, Israeli soliders raided the al-Far’a refugee camp, south of Tubas in the northeastern part of the occupied West Bank. They deployed infantry units at the entrance and firing live ammunition, opened fire indiscriminately, triggering panic among residents. They shot and killed a young Palestinian man that the Palestinian Health Ministry identified as Abdul-Rahman Ahmad Abbas Darawsha, 26. Darawsha was struck by bullets and rushed by a Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance to Tubas Governmental Hospital, where he was later pronounced martyred due to the severity of his injuries. As usual, the Israeli military claimed that its forces fatally shot a Palestinian man because he was allegedly “planning to carry out an attack against them,” however, it failed to provide specific details regarding the nature of the alleged “threat” posed by the individual. It added that troops from the Paratroopers Brigade’s reconnaissance unit were involved in the incident and opened fire on the man, resulting in his death. The military confirmed that no soldiers were injured during the incident. **Name of the martyr:** Abdul Rahman Ahmed Abbas Darawsha, 26
