Dozens of settlers attacked agricultural fields and olive pickers in several areas of the occupied West Bank, cutting power lines to dozens of homes. In the Tubas plain, settlers set up structures under the protection of the occupation army and raised flags of the occupying state, amid fears that this could be the nucleus of a new settlement outpost. In the Mas'udiyya area northwest of Nablus, settlers cut electricity for the fifth time in over two months, according to Diyab Hajji, the official responsible for defending the lands of Mas'udiyya. In the village of Bireen east of Hebron, settlers from the "Adorin" outpost cut electrical wires for the sixth consecutive time, affecting 20 homes in the Wadi al-A'war area, according to the head of the Bireen village council, Fared Barqan. In the Masafer Yatta area south of Hebron, settlers attacked members of the Na'amin family while they were picking olives in Khirbat Aqawis, attempting to seize their equipment. In the town of Yasuf east of Salfit, settlers assaulted farmers and stole olives and a picking machine. In the town of Beit Ur al-Tahta west of Ramallah, settlers damaged crops by grazing their sheep on agricultural land. In the town of Turmus'ayya north of Ramallah, a young man was injured in a settler attack while picking olives. Settlers also attacked vehicles of citizens in the villages of Al-Mughayyir and Abu Falah. The report documents a systematic pattern of attacks under army protection.
