Israeli Soldiers and Settlers Continue Assault on West Bank Palestinians

HeadlineNov 21, 2024

Israeli forces are continuing to attack the occupied West Bank, with deadly raids in Jenin, as well as assaults in Hebron, Ramallah and elsewhere. Illegal Jewish settlers on Wednesday attacked the Palestinian town of al-Mazra’a al-Qibliya, near Ramallah, setting cars ablaze. This is Hilda Sandouka, a Palestinian mother who survived the attack.

Hilda Sandouka: “We were afraid and terrified. My daughters started to scream and cry. Thank God that they only burned the vehicles. They could have set fire inside the house while we were sleeping. We are far away from the downtown. If something happens here, they may not help us. Thank God, neighbors helped out.”
