On November 8, 2025, Israeli settlers set fire to a house in the village of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, early Saturday morning. Dozens of settlers stormed the outskirts of the village and set fire to the one-story home of Basel al-Sheikh, causing damage to parts of it. Israeli forces stormed the area surrounding the house later that morning and fired live ammunition at residents who were present, though no injuries were reported.  *A view of a damaged house of a Palestinian family burned by Israeli settlers in the village of Abu Falah near Ramallah, West Bank on November 08, 2025.

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,”*

Palestinian households in the village of Fasayil al Wusta, located in the Jordan Valley north of Jericho, have been facing increasing harassment and attacks over the past month. As a result, five families decided to leave the area on Thursday, November 6. Only one family remains, still resisting despite displacement efforts. **Broader context:** According to International Solidarity Movement in November 12, 2025: Fasayil al Wusta lies between two settlements, Tomer to the south and Petza’el to the north. Palestinians believe that the plan of the occupation forces is to link the two settlements, which is why Fasayil al Wusta has been so heavily targeted. In 2023, two outposts were also established to the west of the village. The family has reported different incidents over the past month, including beatings of family members and neighbours by the settlers and settler security, along with intimidation intended to force them to leave the area. One of the daughters was detained at a military base for seven hours, where she was not allowed to speak, eat or drink anything, and was threatened of assault. Two years ago, the family’s mother was also arrested and beaten in front of the community. On Thursday, November 6, settlers erected a fence around the family’s house, isolating it from the neighbouring villages of Fasayil and Fasayil al Fauqa. This further action paired by daily incursions by settlers entering the property and scaring the family has raised fears of imminent displacement among the local community. International witnesses have reported sustained activity around the house, including the presence of drones hovering overhead at all hours of the day and night, and settlers using ATVs to patrol the perimeter fence around the family’s land. On Sunday (November 9) morning, soldiers arrived and demanded the owner’s ID, and later, members of Israel’s Nature and Parks Authority authority were seen shooting and killing dogs belonging to neighbouring families. In addition, the water pipeline supplying the household was found to have been cut. Water is delivered to the household only every four days for 12 hours, due to Israel’s full control on water resources in the Jordan Valley. The families in fact believes the pipeline was cut on Thursday, when the fence was erected. The family’s ongoing exposure to continuous distress caused by the fear of attacks is compounded by additional hardships. Children are scared to walk to school, which is a few hundreds meter away, and family members are generally afraid to leave the house unattended, which poses additional problems when medical visits and other daily tasks require leaving the home. **On November 6, 2025**, five more Palestinian families were forced to flee Fasayil, only one family still remains. **On 17 November 2025**, Ayman Ghraieb, a well-known nonviolent Palestinian activist who documents settler violence in the Jordan Valley, was arrested in al-Fasayil. Previously targeted by settlers and military interference, he was detained by Israeli forces at settlers’ request and is now reportedly held by Shin Bet. His whereabouts, condition, and legal status remain unknown, raising serious concerns about the motivation and legality of his detention. **On January 17, 2026:** After families were uprooted and the area was fenced under the pretext of settlement, settlers are trying to pressure Abed al-Hadi Abayat and his family to leave the area by placing spoiled dates next to their house and bringing cattle to graze there—not to mention the stench from the dates. It should be noted that the Abayat family and one other family remained in the area after more than four families were uprooted due to settler violence. Source: ‘Aref Da’arma

On November 6, 2025, two minor were summary executed with live ammunition near the apartheid wall in the town of Al-Judeira, near occupied Jerusalem. Muhammad Tayem and Muhammad Qasim, were shot dead after the Israeli forces fired a heavy barrage of live bullets at them in the Al-Hara Al-Fawqa area in the town of Al-Jadira, near the apartheid wall. The bodies of the martyrs have been detained sincetheir death until now. **According to the investigation of Defense for Children - Palestine** The two boy were shot by Israeli forces around 4 p.m. on November 6 near the Al-Judeira playground close to the separation wall erected on the lands of the Palestinian town of Al-Judeira, northwest of Jerusalem, in the central occupied West Bank. According to a circulated black-and-white video, Israeli media said the two boys, Mohammad Qasim and Mohammad Etayem, were shot because they allegedly threw Molotov cocktails behind the separation wall. However, the footage shows Israeli soldiers opened fire intensely and deliberately at the boys (with around 50 bullets, according to the families of the children) while they were turned away and not posing an immediate threat, indicating the force used was lethal rather than intended to detain them. As Israeli authorities have confiscated the bodies of the boys, DCIP is not able to verify the location or number of bullet wounds that both of them sustained: the Israeli forces detained the boys while wounded, according to information from the Palestinian Prisoners Club delivered to their families. The families of the children were informed by the Palestinian Liaison Office on November 7, that their children had been killed and that their bodies were being withheld by the Israeli forces. “Israeli forces routinely unlawfully kill Palestinian children with impunity, using intentional lethal force against Palestinian children when not justified,” said Ayed Abu Eqtaish, accountability program director at DCIP. “If a child is suspected of committing a criminal act, they should be apprehended in accordance with international standards and afforded due process of law, not executed on the spot after they no longer pose any threat.” Israeli forces and settlers have killed 46 Palestinian children in the occupied West Bank in 2025, according to documentation collected by DCIP. **Names of the martyrs:** 1. Mohammad Abdullah Mohammad Etayem, 16 2. Mohammad Rashad Fadel Qasim, 16 **Abduction of the children bodies:** Israeli forces have still withheld the bodies of at least 50 Palestinian children since June 2016. 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 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.

The Far‑right National Security Minister Itamar Ben‑Gvir and his Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power) party, seeks to amend Israeli law to mandate the death penalty for people convicted of certain killings defined as terrorism or “nationalistically‑motivated murder”. It has so far passed a first reading in the Knesset and is moving through committee toward second and third (final) readings. The legal change would be significant because modern Israeli law has rarely used the death penalty (last case was Adolf Eichmann in 1962), and courts traditionally have discretion in sentencing. Core provisions include: 1. The death penalty would be mandatory for someone who “intentionally or recklessly causes the death of an Israeli citizen” when motivated by racism, hostility, or the intent to harm the State of Israel or “the rebirth of the Jewish people in its land.” 2. Sentences would be imposed without the possibility of reduction. 3. Military courts could also hand down death sentences without commutation, and appeals would be limited. 4. Advocates including Ben‑Gvir have openly discussed methods like hanging, electric chair, or lethal injection. **On November 3, 2025**, the Knesset’s National Security Committee approved for first reading two separate bills that would impose a mandatory death penalty for "terrorists" convicted of murder motivated by racism or hostility with the intent to harm the State of Israel. The bills, backed by members of Otzma Yehudit and Yisrael Beitenu, aim to enhance deterrence by eliminating judicial discretion and allowing death sentences by majority vote of judges, without the possibility of commutation. The committee’s legal advisor raised significant concerns, including the inability to correct wrongful convictions after execution, the lack of stricter evidentiary standards, and the proposed weakening of judicial safeguards. Despite these objections, the committee advanced the bills. Senior officials expressed differing views. Hostages Coordinator Gal Hirsch withdrew prior objections and said the Prime Minister supports the bill. National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir insisted that discretion would undermine deterrence and that the law reflects a shift in Israel’s security doctrine. Supporters argued the law is essential for deterrence and national security; opponents, such as MK Gilad Kariv, called it extreme and unsuitable for a democratic state. The committee ultimately passed the bills for first reading, forwarding them to the Knesset plenum. **Political Context and Support/** Ben‑Gvir has been one of the strongest proponents, arguing the law is “moral”, will deter future attacks, and should be enacted especially after hostage returns. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government reportedly supports the measure as part of coalition agreements. The bill passed its first Knesset reading by 39 votes to 16 and is now in committee. **Quotes pro-death penalty:** National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir stressed that the law must leave no judicial discretion: **“Let every terrorist who goes to murder know that he can expect one penalty—the death penalty.”** (...) *“As soon as you grant discretion, you diminish the deterrent effect.”* Bill sponsor MK Limor Sonn Har Melech argued that only an unequivocal law prevents terrorists from exploiting legal ambiguity: *“A dead terrorist will not return to terrorism and to the cycle of blood, and certainly will not be freed in a terrorist deal.”* Supporter MK Oded Forer emphasized deterrence over revenge: *“This legislation is necessary for the State of Israel’s security… I have been advancing this bill since 2016.”* Minister Yitzhak Wasserlauf called for automatic execution upon conviction: *“There is guilty or innocent. If he has been found guilty, then it is an automatic execution.”* (...) *“Those who murder us will know that we will settle the score with them. I am not afraid of the word revenge.”* Committee Chair MK Tzvika Foghel concluded with a firm endorsement: *“When we implement the death penalty, the world will be cleaner and safer… even if it saves the life of one Jew, the bill is worth it.”* (...) *“A dead terrorist will not be freed, either in a deal or otherwise.”* *** ## **Pro–Death Penalty Supporters** 1.

Tzvika Foghel – MK, Chair of the National Security Committee (Otzma Yehudit) **On December 8, 2025:** During a Knesset National Security Committee session on a bill enabling the death penalty for Palestinian prisoners, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir drew criticism for wearing a **noose-shaped lapel pin**. The far-right Otzma Yehudit minister defended the proposal despite strong legal and constitutional objections raised by the committee’s own legal advisers. Ben-Gvir described the death penalty as a “legitimate” punishment and listed possible execution methods, including hanging, electric chair, and lethal injection. He dismissed warnings from legal experts and claimed he had received widespread support from doctors willing to participate in executions, despite earlier reports that many medical professionals would refuse. Not only Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir but his allies were photographed wearing gold noose pins in public to signal support for executing Palestinian detainees. Also visible in the image is Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu, whose ministry oversees settlement expansion and displacement in the occupied West Bank. For Americans and many in former settler colonies, the noose is inseparable from the history of racial terror and lynching, making its public display an endorsement of extrajudicial killing and violent intimidation. Israeli military courts that try Palestinians convict more than 99% of defendants. Over half of the nearly 9,500 Palestinians imprisoned by Israel are held without charge or trial. **Criticism, Legal and Human Rights Concerns:** The proposed law has drawn strong criticism from legal experts, rights groups, and international observers: Human rights organizations (e.g., Amnesty International) warn that the bill is discriminatory in practice, since its language would apply overwhelmingly to Palestinians and would violate international human rights norms. Israeli civil rights groups say it undermines the constitutional right to life, violates equality principles and could legalize state‑sanctioned killings. Critics argue that judicial review and appeals would be weakened, raising concerns about fair trials, especially in military courts. MK Naor Shiri (party Yesh Atid) submitted an urgent letter to the State Comptroller and Ombudsman Matanyahu Engelman, demanding clarification of the sources of funding for the hanging rope-shaped pin worn by Ben Gabir and members of his party: *"I will ask for your examination, Was the purchase of the pin financed from the parties' funds? To the extent that this is indeed done with public funds, is it an expense that meets the proper use of party funds?".* Senior Likud officials attacked Ben Gvir: *"He sabotages himself with the death penalty law for terrorists. He deals with gimmicks instead of solving the problems that are in the law itself - this will lead to his law being invalidated by the High Court".* **On December 11, 2025:** An Israeli soldier was recorded with a patch of a hanging rope on his uniform. Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir's instructions prohibit non-standard patches on IDF uniforms, and the army is trying to find out the identity of a soldier. An IDF spokesperson stated: *"According to the rules of appearance and dress, it is prohibited to wear any non-military insignia on an IDF uniform". And therefore, non-IDF badges are prohibited and enforced similar to other aspects of appearance and clothing. The IDF takes seriously any use of symbols that harm the statehood of the army. The incident is investigated and the identity of the soldier under investigation, when found, will be handled disciplinary"*. 

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

On November 2, 2025, Israeli soldiers in three heavily armored military vehicles entered Beit Furik around 9:45 p.m., roamed through neighborhoods and conducted several patrols within the town, firing live ammunition at Palestinian youths confronting Israeli soldiers. Israeli forces conducted search operations and arrested Palestinians during the raid across the West Bank on Sunday night and early on Monday November 3. The Palestinian Health Ministry confirms 17-year-old Jamil Atef Hanani was shot by Israeli forces and died after succumbing to critical wounds. Israeli forces deliberately obstructed his rescue, causing his death after a preventable delay. On November 3, large crowds were taking part in the funeral procession of the martyr in the town of Beit Furik. **Investigation of Defense for Children-Palestine** "Jameel Atef Jameel Hanani, 17, was shot by an Israeli soldier positioned inside a heavily armored Israeli military vehicle around 10 p.m. on November 2 in the Palestinian town of Beit Furik, east of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank, according to documentation collected by Defense for Children International - Palestine. Jameel was near the Friendship Medical Center, when Israeli forces were passing by the center, preparing for withdrawal from the town. 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. Jameel was then transported to Rafidia Governmental Hospital in Nablus city, where he was immediately admitted to the intensive care unit. He was pronounced dead from his injury on November 3 around 1 a.m." **Name of the martyr: ** Jamil Atef Jamil Hanani 17 y/o

On October 31, 2025, in the evening, Israeli settlers, backed by the army, raided Beit Lid near Tulkarm, setting fire to farm tractors, vehicles, and a bulldozer, leading to confrontations in the area. A group of settlers set out from the Ramin plain area, where an illegal pastoral outpost was established, toward the nearby town of Beit Lid, closed a road in the area, and attacked passing Palestinian-registered vehicles and farmers with stones and sticks. They also set fire to an agricultural tractor, a vehicle, and part of an agricultural facility on the outskirts of the town, while the Israeli soldiers fired tear gas canisters toward residents who rushed to confront the settlers’ attack. A prevailing state of high tension is witnessed in the vicinity of the town, with ongoing reinforcements of settlers and soldiers and their heavy deployment in the eastern areas of Tulkarem. **Second wave, two hours later:** Israeli Settlers set fire the to three vehicles in the second such attack in hours in the town of Kafr Qaddum in the north of the occupied West Bank, in the second such attack in a matter of hours, Al Jazeera Arabic reports. Abdel Qabaja, an activist against the wall and settlements, said the settlers attacked Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalqilya, leading to clashes with residents during which the settlers used live ammunition. The Israeli army intervened to protect the settlers, using tear gas and live ammunition. The settlers burned three vehicles in the town, including a vehicle owned by Murad Ishtawi, director of the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission office in the northern West Bank. 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.
