Israeli settlers attack villages near Jericho in the occupied West Bank

Israeli settlers have attacked two Palestinian villages, Abu Falah and Duma, according to local sources cited by Wafa news agency. The settlers cut down and uprooted olive trees, and threatened the Palestinian residents not to enter their lands.

Separately in Shallalat al-Auja, north of Jericho, settlers have stormed in and roamed provocatively through the village. The area has been repeatedly raided and attacked by settlers in anticipation of displacing the Bedouin residents, who rely on the land for their agriculture and water resources.
