In a new rampage carried out on Saturday by scores of illegal Israeli settlers under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, a number of Palestinians were injured, bruised, and suffocated, while several houses and vehicles were set on fire, in the village of Umm Safa, northwest of Ramallah, in the central occupied West Bank, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, state-run Palestinian news agency WAFA reported, citing local sources.

Dozens of armed Israeli settlers attacked Umm Safa and targeted Palestinian citizens' homes and facilities with gunfire.

Palestinian activist Ibrahim Ebayat confirmed to WAFA that during the rampage, occupation forces did not prevent the settlers from burning homes and vehicles and attacking Palestinians.

In a related context, WAFA reported that Israeli settlers burned about 50 dunums of corps in the village of Al-Tuwane in Masafer Yatta, south of occupied Al-Khalil.

The news agency cited local activist Rateb Al-Jabour as saying that the settlers set fire to Palestinian crops in the village owned by three villagers, leading to their destruction.

Al-Jabour highlighted that in light of the expansion of illegal Israeli settlement outposts in Masafer Yatta, settlers intensified their attacks against Palestinian citizens' property, crops and pastures, wells, and houses.
