Pogrom in Susiya

West Bank, Masafer Yatta, Al-Khalil/Hebron, Susiya 24 February, 2026
On February 24, 2026, during the night, dozens of Israeli settlers entered the Palestinian hamlet of Susiya in the southern West Bank, in Masafer Yatta, South Hebron Hills carried out a pogrom. The attack happened around 8 p.m. on Tuesday, according to timestamps from two security cameras in the village of Susiya in the southern West Bank. They attacked homes and cars with stones, and set fire to three tents, a pre-fab, chicken coops and cars at several spots throughout the village. Footage showed roughly two dozen settlers dressed in black entering the hamlet. Some poured what appeared to be flammable liquid from white bottles onto a truck before setting it on fire, while others threw rocks at homes, vehicles, and cameras, smashing a windshield. Another camera angle showed settlers beating a car with clubs and one person attempting to kick in the door of a caravan. Footage also shows a group of settlers trying to damage cameras to prevent documentation of the attack. None of the assailants were detained. 4 houses and 2 vehicles were set on fire. Settlers used rocks, clubs, and flammable liquid to burn vehicles and damage property, according to security footage. Residents said about 30 settlers were involved; no arrests were immediately reported, though Israeli authorities said an investigation was opened. The house of the citizen Ahmed Jabr Nawajaa was burnt, and a private vehicle owned by the citizen: Khader Nawajaa, which led to 4 citizens suffering from suffocation, and they were treated in the field. A resident, Fatima Al-Nawaja, said her family’s truck and a caravan were burned while they hid inside their home watching events unfold on the security feed. By morning, the truck was completely destroyed. Israeli authorities said soldiers and police were sent after reports of fire and that an investigation was opened, but they did not confirm arrests. Palestinian residents said they believe the attacks are meant to pressure them to leave the area, though they insist they will rebuild and stay despite fear among children and families. The area has a history of settler violence and was featured in the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land; a previous attack there injured one of the film’s directors, Hamdan Ballal. About 300 people live in the village, half of them minors. They are subjected to daily violence by settlers and the military, with the backing of all Israeli state authorities. A delegation of European diplomats visited the village the next day. **Testimony of kivsa shchora from the Masafering account**: Shortly after the end of the iftar meal, dozens of settlers stormed the village and carried out coordinated arson attacks at four locations. A residential tent, a house’s entrance gate, a chicken coop (in which all but one of the chickens were burned alive) a truck, and a car were set on fire, and the windows of another vehicle were smashed. Many residents suffered from smoke inhalation. According to testimonies from residents, the settlers who took part in the attack returned directly afterward to the Ancient Susya outpost. The village of Susya is subjected almost daily to attacks and harassment by the State of Israel. When settlers invade the village and assault its residents, they do so as part of a broader strategy aimed at expelling the community by military and police abuse, government support and legal apartheid. When an entire society participates in and supports the genocide of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, it is no surprise that children growing up in Israel are educated to burn the homes of members of that same people in the West Bank. **Statement of he European Union Delegation to the Palestinians: ** *"We are appalled by the violent settler attack last night on the village of Susya, Masafer Yatta. The attack is one too many in a long series of attacks over the past year, including a recent raid on the Oscar-winning director Hamdan Ballal’s home and family. This highlights the alarming pressure on Palestinian communities and human rights defenders. It also exemplifies the expanding problem of settler violence across the West Bank, where Palestinians are forced to leave their homes and perpetrators are not held accountable. It is high time for justice and we call on Israeli authorities to act in accordance with their responsibilities as the occupying power."* EU diplomat Alexander Stutzman condemned the incident after visiting the site, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has characterized settler violence as the work of a small extremist minority even as his government expands settlements.

Mohammad and other young Palestinians allegedly threw stones toward the military vehicles for about two minutes before Israeli forces opened fire, striking Mohammad in the head from a distance of about 40 meters (131 feet). Soldiers rushed toward Mohammad, who had collapsed on the ground, and searched the area before an Israeli military ambulance arrived and its military paramedics began to administer first aid.

Attacks and ethnic cleansing in Qusra

West Bank, Nablus, Qusra 20 February, 2026
Qusra is a Palestinian town in the occupied West Bank, located south of the city of Nablus in the Nablus Governorate. It lies in Area C under full Israeli control according to the Oslo Accords and is near Israeli settlements and outposts to the south and southeast The area has faced frequent settler violence and land confiscation due to the proximity of illegal Israeli outposts such as Esh Kodesh and Ahiya. **On July 21, 2024,** A group of Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian farmers and foreign activists working on agricultural land belonging to the town. The farmers and volunteers were plowing fields and clearing weeds when the attack occurred. At least one Palestinian farmer and one foreign activist were injured by stones and batons and taken to hospital in Nablus. **On January 2026,** settlers placed caravans on the lands of the village of Qusra, harassing the residents on a daily basis. One of the Palestinian families left. **On February 27, 2026**, a group of settler militias brutally attacked Israeli activists in the village of Qusra in the Nablus District, West Bank. Two were injured by sticks and hospitalized in moderate condition. The settlers assaulted foreign activists who were present to support and protect local Palestinian residents in the Ras al-Ayn area, wounding two. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) sources confirmed that its crews provided first aid treatment to a 71-year-old woman and a 51-year-old man whom were injured by colonists before rushing them to a hospital. **According to a [B'tselem statement,](https://x.com/btselem/status/2027388372038119613)** these pogroms are "carried out with full backing, participation, and assistance from state authorities, as part of a strategy of Israel’s apartheid regime seeking to advance and complete the takeover of Palestinian land. In a video documenting the beginning of the attack, filmed by one of the activists, the assailants can be seen arriving in a Polaris Ranger all terrain vehicle, which was most likely provided to them by the Israeli government. Dozens of such vehicles have been distributed over the past two years by the Ministry of Settlement to outposts across the West Bank, and settlers regularly use them as vehicles that enable rapid access to carry out violent attacks almost anywhere." On March 10, 2026, the three suspects in the assault on activists from "Looking the Occupation” in Qusra have been released. According to a statement of Mistaclim *"The police didn’t even request an extension of their detention despite having all the evidence. The president condemned it, the army issued a weak response, the media was shocked, and yet another violent incident committed by Jews disappears. The attackers remain free. Under the cover of the war (against Lebanon and Iran), Jewish terrorism is raising its head. The weakness of the police strengthens the Israeli terrorists. A state that boasts impressive technological capabilities thousands kilometers from its borders cannot — or does not want to — stop the terror of its own sons and daughters. The weakness of the police and the security forces is policy not a mistake. The blood of the injured is on the hands of the government ministers and the one who stands at its head."* **On March 8,** in an effort to strengthen their oppression and silence protest, Israeli forces positioned around a house that was turned into a military barracks. At least two residents were interrogated and later released.
