Heidi Levine nach Angriff von Siedlern operiert; keine Festnahmen bekannt gegebenWas wir als offen bezeichnet hatten
Eine abgestimmte abschließende Opferliste, eine bestätigte medizinische Prognose, identifizierte einzelne Angreifer oder abgeschlossene Ermittlungsergebnisse liegen nicht vor.
Noch offenFestnahmen und Haftverlängerungen durch ein Gericht werden nun gemeldet, doch einzelne Angreifer, abgeschlossene Ermittlungsergebnisse, eine abgestimmte Opferliste und eine bestätigte medizinische Prognose sind weiterhin nicht belegt. Levines genauere Schilderung ihrer Verletzungen liefert diese fehlenden Erkenntnisse nicht. 1 270
Achten Sie auf dokumentierte medizinische Aktualisierungen, eine abgestimmte Verletzungsliste und Ermittlungsergebnisse, die sowohl das Verhalten der Angreifer als auch die Reaktion der Soldaten erklären.
Noch offenLevine wurde am 19. Oktober aus dem Krankenhaus interviewt, doch ein endgültiger Zeitplan für ihre Genesung oder eine abgestimmte Verletzungsliste liegt nicht vor. Die Maßnahmen der Behörden haben weder das Verhalten der Soldaten erklärt noch die widersprüchlichen Darstellungen ihrer Reaktion geklärt. 1 5
Jetzt
Die Festnahmen markieren nach der Misshandlung von Heidi Levine eine Veränderung, doch widersprüchliche Angaben zur Haft und offene Fragen zum Verhalten der Soldaten lassen die Rechenschaftspflicht ungeklärt.
Heidi Levine sprach am 19. Oktober noch immer aus einem Krankenbett, drei Tage nachdem maskierte Männer sie geschlagen hatten, als sie Palästinenser bei der Olivenernte im besetzten Westjordanland begleitete. Die amerikanische Fotojournalistin berichtete von gebrochenen Wirbeln, einer gebrochenen Rippe und einer Fingerverletzung, die operiert werden musste. Sie war weiterhin zu verletzt, um an ihre Arbeit zurückzukehren. Die Polizei hatte mit Festnahmen begonnen, doch wer ihr diese Verletzungen zugefügt hatte – und warum Soldaten sie nicht schützten –, war weiterhin ungeklärt. 1 2
Die israelische Polizei gab am Montag, dem 19. Oktober 2026, zehn Festnahmen im Rahmen von Ermittlungen bekannt, die Levines Angriff, einen separaten Angriff auf europäische Vertreter und mutmaßlich illegale Bautätigkeit umfassten. Ein Gericht verlängerte anschließend die Haft von Verdächtigen, obwohl veröffentlichte Berichte sich darin widersprechen, wie viele weiterhin in Haft waren und wie lange. 1 273
Das ist eine konkrete Veränderung gegenüber unserem Bericht vom 18. Oktober, in dem wir über Levines Operation berichteten und schrieben, dass keine Festnahmen bekannt gegeben worden waren. Es ist noch keine Antwort auf die schwierigere Frage, die jener Bericht offenließ: Wer hat sie geschlagen, und zu welchen Erkenntnissen werden die Ermittler über die in der Nähe eingesetzten Kräfte gelangen?
Der Unterschied ist wichtig, denn zehn Festnahmen bedeuten nicht, dass zehn Beteiligte an Levines Misshandlung identifiziert wurden. Die Ermittlungen betreffen verschiedene Vorfälle und mutmaßliche Straftaten. In den verfügbaren Berichten sind weder formelle Anklageschriften noch namentlich genannte Beschuldigte oder abgeschlossene Ermittlungsergebnisse belegt. 261 270
Ein Einsatz, zwei separate Angriffe
Die Polizei nahm im Morgengrauen im Gebiet Binyamin im Rahmen der Operation Olivenblatt Verdächtige fest. Zeitgenössischen Berichten zufolge sammelten Beamte Beweise, beschlagnahmten Fahrzeuge und brachten Verdächtige zur Befragung mit. Zu den gemeldeten Verdachtsmomenten zählen Gewalt, das Betreten einer gesperrten Militärzone und illegale Bautätigkeit; die Polizei hat nicht öffentlich jede Anschuldigung jedem Festgenommenen zugeordnet. 263 261 1
Levine wurde am 16. Oktober nahe Abu Falah, nordöstlich von Ramallah, angegriffen. Am folgenden Tag griffen Männer mit Stöcken und Eisenstangen europäische Vertreter und palästinensische Olivenernter nahe Taybeh an. Es handelte sich um Angriffe an aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen an unterschiedlichen Orten, nicht um austauschbare Beschreibungen ein und derselben Konfrontation. 21 269 1
Zur Delegation in Taybeh gehörten belgische, französische und polnische Amtsträger sowie Vertreter der katholischen Kirche. Der französische Bürgermeister Bernard Baudoux wurde angegriffen, die Scheibe eines Dienstwagens eingeschlagen und ein junger Palästinenser schwer verletzt. Israels Außenminister verurteilte den Angriff und sagte zugleich, die Delegation habe ihren Besuch nicht mit dem Militär abgestimmt. Dieser Vorbehalt identifiziert weder die Angreifer noch entschuldigt er die Gewalt. 4 9 1
Auch bei der Zahl der Festnahmen muss ein Zeitstempel angegeben werden. In einer frühen Meldung von Times of Israel war von acht die Rede; anschließend gab die Polizei zehn bekannt. In einem aktualisierten Artikel von Times of Israel wurde elf gemeldet. Zehn ist die bestätigte erste Bekanntgabe der Polizei, nicht notwendigerweise die endgültige Zahl. Die Umstände der Festnahme der zusätzlichen Person und deren Haftstatus sind nicht belegt. 314 280 265
Die Angaben zur Haft lassen sich schwerer miteinander vereinbaren. Der Guardian berichtete am 19. Oktober, sechs Männer hätten Haftverlängerungen von drei bis vier Tagen erhalten. Ein Gerichtsbericht der Times of Israel vom selben Tag besagte, dass sieben der ursprünglich zehn bis Mittwoch, den 21. Oktober, in Haft bleiben sollten. Ein weiterer, am 19. Oktober von The State of Israel veröffentlichter Bericht sprach von sechs Verdächtigen, deren Haft um zwei Tage verlängert worden sei. Das sind in wesentlichen Punkten unterschiedliche Darstellungen, keine einheitliche, geklärte Liste der Haftentscheidungen. 1 273 346
Demócrata berichtete separat, dass drei der zehn unter Auflagen freigelassen wurden und ein weiterer bis zum 20. Oktober in Haft bleiben sollte. Ynet schrieb, drei Verdächtige im Zusammenhang mit dem Angriff auf Levine sollten bis zum 21. Oktober festgehalten werden; daneben seien in Bezug auf den Angriff auf die Diplomaten separate Haftverlängerungen angeordnet worden. Ohne die zugrunde liegenden Beschlüsse und eine vollständige Liste lässt sich nicht unterscheiden, ob es sich um aufeinanderfolgende Entscheidungen, unterschiedliche Zählweisen oder Berichtsfehler handelt. Festnahme und Untersuchungshaft sind keine Schuldsprüche; eine Entlassung unter Auflagen ist kein Freispruch. 275 274
Was die Festnahmen nicht erklären
Die 63-jährige Levine sagt, maskierte Siedler hätten sie zu Boden gestoßen, mit Stöcken geschlagen und wiederholt getreten, nachdem sie von den Olivenerntern getrennt worden war. Sie schätzte, die Misshandlung habe mehr als zehn Minuten gedauert – eine nicht gemessene Zeitspanne – und beschrieb sie aus dem Krankenhaus als versuchten Lynchmord. Sie glaubt, ihr Helm und ihre mit Pressekennzeichnungen versehene Schutzweste hätten schlimmere Verletzungen verhindert. 6 5 1
In ihrer Schilderung nennt sie vier gebrochene Wirbel, eine gebrochene Rippe und Schnittwunden. Unser Bericht vom 18. Oktober hatte bereits von mehreren gebrochenen Wirbeln und einer Operation am 17. Oktober wegen einer schweren Fingerverletzung berichtet. Die genaue Zahl der Wirbel stammt aus Levines Schilderung, nicht aus einer neu eingeholten ausführlichen Krankenhausdiagnose. Ein bestätigter Entlassungstermin oder ein Zeitplan für ihre Genesung liegt nicht vor. 5 76
Sie sagt, ihre Kamera, ihr Telefon und ihre Tasche seien ihr abgenommen worden; der Bericht des Guardian vom 18. Oktober erwähnt auch ihren Reisepass. Es gibt weder ein abgeglichenes Verzeichnis der Gegenstände noch eine dokumentierte Rückgabe, anhand derer sich feststellen ließe, was zurückgegeben wurde. Ihr Arbeitgeber, die Washington Post, hat eine vollständige und transparente Untersuchung gefordert. 4 6
Die Zeugin Adele Shoko berichtete, dass Steine auf die Olivenernter geworfen, Felder in Brand gesetzt und Schüsse abgegeben worden seien, bevor Levine isoliert und mit Knüppeln geschlagen worden sei. Shoko sagte außerdem, jemand sei in den Oberschenkel geschossen worden und israelische Kräfte hätten nach ihrer Ankunft Tränengas eingesetzt und auf Palästinenser geschossen. Diese Schilderungen identifizieren weder den Schützen noch belegen sie eine abschließende Opferzahl. 5
Wie wir am 18. Oktober berichteten, warf Levine den Soldaten in der Nähe vor, sie nicht geschützt zu haben. Das Militär erklärte, die eintreffenden Truppen hätten Mittel zur Auflösung von Unruhen eingesetzt; einer ersten Prüfung zufolge hätten die Soldaten ihre Misshandlung nicht beobachtet. Seine separate Darstellung, wonach auf eine Person mit einem scharfen Gegenstand geschossen worden sei, bezog sich auf einen anderen Ort; sie kann nicht einfach zur Erklärung der Schüsse an dem Ort herangezogen werden, an dem Levine angegriffen wurde. Die Festnahmen haben diesen Widerspruch nicht ausgeräumt. 80 32
Wessen Sicherheit führt zu einem Eingreifen der Behörden?
Internationale Forderungen gingen dem Einsatz voraus. Der US-Botschafter Mike Huckabee bezeichnete den Angriff auf Levine als „verabscheuungswürdigen Terrorakt“ und forderte Ermittlungen, Festnahmen und Strafverfolgung. Außenminister Marco Rubio sagte, die Bilder hätten die Vereinigten Staaten erschüttert; das Land habe Israel aufgefordert, gegen die Gewalt vorzugehen. Aus dieser zeitlichen Abfolge lässt sich nicht ableiten, welche Forderung den Einsatz ausgelöst hat, und Huckabees Bezeichnung bedeutet nicht, dass eine Terrorismusanklage angekündigt wurde. 6 5
Benjamin Netanyahu verurteilte Gewalt, bezeichnete den Angriff auf Levine jedoch als „mutmaßlichen Angriff“ und den Fall der Diplomaten als „unbewiesene Vorwürfe“. Sein Büro erklärte, die Umstände seien weiterhin unklar, und warnte davor, gesetzestreue Siedler zu diffamieren. Die Ermittler müssen noch die individuelle Verantwortung feststellen, doch diese Ungewissheit macht die belegten Schläge und Verletzungen nicht ungeschehen. Levine nannte seine Reaktion „einen heftigen Schlag ins Gesicht“. 6 1
Die strengere Prüfung geht über ausländische Opfer hinaus. Ziv Stahl, Geschäftsführerin von Yesh Din, verwies auf die Diskrepanz zwischen dieser Reaktion der Behörden und den Erfahrungen der Palästinenser mit Siedlergewalt.
Es spricht Bände, dass erst Angriffe auf ausländische Staatsangehörige eine deutliche Reaktion der israelischen Behörden ausgelöst haben.
Die Menschenrechtsgruppe zählte in den drei Wochen seit dem 27. September 561 Vorfälle von Gewalt durch Siedler und Soldaten gegen Palästinenser – mehr als 26 pro Tag, laut dem Bericht des Guardian vom 19. Oktober. Dabei handelt es sich um eine gemeinsame Zählung von Vorfällen mit Siedlern und Soldaten im gesamten Westjordanland, nicht um eine Opferzahl oder eine ausschließlich Siedlern zugerechnete Zahl. Die zugrunde liegende Vorfallliste und der genaue Stichtag liegen hier nicht vor. 1
Die Zahl kann auch nicht verantwortungsvoll als Anstieg gegenüber der früheren Zahl von 170 dargestellt werden. CBS beschrieb die Angriffe als „um 170 gestiegen“, ohne die Kennzahl zu definieren, während frühere Berichte 170 als Zahl der Angriffe verwendeten. Ihre Definitionen und Stichtage wurden nicht miteinander abgeglichen. 2
Stahl sagte, 94% der Ermittlungen zu Siedlergewalt gegen Palästinenser würden ohne Anklage eingestellt. In dem Bericht werden weder der Beobachtungszeitraum noch der Nenner genannt; die Statistik kann daher die Ergebnisse für diese Festgenommenen nicht vorhersagen. Sie erklärt jedoch, warum eine Festnahmeankündigung daran gemessen werden sollte, was danach folgt, statt sie als bereits erreichte Rechenschaftspflicht zu behandeln. 1
Der unmittelbare dokumentarische Prüfstein sind die tatsächlichen Haftbeschlüsse, insbesondere die voneinander abweichenden Enddaten 20. und 21. Oktober; anschließend geht es um mögliche Anklagen und Beweise, die einzelne Personen mit den jeweiligen Angriffen in Verbindung bringen. Der praktische Prüfstein ist, ob palästinensische Familien ihre Olivenernte sicher beenden können. Ein Einsatz nach Angriffen auf Ausländer hat diesen Schutz bislang nicht unter Beweis gestellt. 275 273
Wie ausgestrahlt 24 Zeilen
- Israeli police detained ten suspects, and a court extended custody following attacks on foreigners.
- On October 18, we reported masked men attacking Palestinian olive harvesters near Abu Falah. No arrests had been announced by then. The new investigation covers attacks on a journalist and European visitors, alongside suspected illegal construction.
- Investigators now have to connect individual suspects to the attacks and explain what soldiers did.
- Heidi Levine was beaten near Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, on October 16. European representatives and Palestinian harvesters were attacked near Taybeh the next day. Police connect both incidents to their investigation in the occupied West Bank.
- Police made pre-dawn arrests in the Binyamin area during Operation Olive Leaf on October 19. They say officers collected evidence, confiscated vehicles and took suspects for questioning. The suspected offenses include violence, entering a closed military zone and illegal construction. Police haven't assigned every allegation to every detainee.
- The court figures differ. Six men received extensions of three to four days in one account. Another puts seven of the original ten in custody until October 21. Those figures haven't been reconciled, and the custody dates differ too.
- Six suspects are also reported to have received two-day extensions. Three of the ten were reportedly released under restrictions, while another custody account puts one detainee in custody only until October 20. Early arrest coverage counted eight. Police announced ten, and an updated total reached eleven. The additional person's circumstances are still unclear.
- Levine says masked settlers pushed her down, beat her with sticks and repeatedly kicked her after she became separated from the harvesters. The 63-year-old estimates the beating lasted more than ten minutes. She described it from hospital as an attempted lynching.
- She says she suffered four broken vertebrae, a broken rib and lacerations. A severe finger injury required surgery on October 17. The specific vertebra count comes from Levine's account. She was interviewed from a hospital bed on October 19 and remained too injured to return to work.
- Levine says her helmet and press-marked body armour prevented worse injuries. She says her camera, phone and bag were taken; another account includes her passport. Her employer has demanded a full, transparent investigation.
- Witness Adele Shoko described rocks thrown at harvesters, fields set on fire and gunfire before Levine was isolated and beaten. Shoko also said someone was shot in the thigh, and Israeli forces used tear gas and fired at Palestinians after arriving.
- Levine says soldiers nearby failed to protect her. The military says arriving troops used riot-dispersal means, and its initial review said troops hadn't witnessed her beating. Its separate account of firing toward someone carrying a sharp object concerned another location.
- The arrests haven't explained the soldiers' response or identified the person who fired the shot described by Shoko. The wider injury totals also remain unsettled.
- Men carrying sticks and iron bars attacked the delegation near Taybeh. They assaulted visiting French mayor Bernard Baudoux, smashed an official vehicle's window and severely injured a young Palestinian man. The group included Belgian, French and Polish officials and Catholic Church representatives.
- Israel's foreign minister condemned that assault while saying the delegation hadn't coordinated its visit with the military. Former Israeli diplomats called for government intervention and protested settler violence. Israeli settlements in the West Bank are considered illegal under international law, a position Israel rejects.
- US ambassador Mike Huckabee called Levine's assault a “despicable act of terror” and demanded investigation, arrests and prosecution. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the images disturbed the United States, which had asked Israel to crack down on the violence.
- Those demands came before the arrests. That sequence doesn't show which demand prompted the operation. Huckabee's language was his characterization of the attack; prosecutors haven't announced a terrorism charge.
- Benjamin Netanyahu condemned violence but called Levine's assault an “alleged attack” and the diplomats' case “unproven allegations.” His office said the circumstances remained unclear and warned against using disputed incidents to smear law-abiding settlers.
- Levine rejected the suggestion that settlers had been helping her as “such a lie and the biggest insult.” She called Netanyahu's response “a big slap on my face.” Her injuries and beating are established facts, even as investigators work to identify individual assailants.
- Yesh Din counted 561 incidents of settler and soldier violence against Palestinians over three weeks since September 27. That's more than 26 a day. The tally covers both settlers and soldiers across the West Bank, well beyond the two attacks under investigation.
- The earlier figure of 170 can't be used as a matching baseline. Its definition and cutoff remain unclear, so the two numbers don't show a verified increase on a single comparable measure.
- Yesh Din director Ziv Stahl says the response exposes a disparity: attacks on foreign nationals prompted significant enforcement while Palestinians have endured years of settler violence. Levine also says Palestinians across the West Bank face attacks, injury and the loss of property and relatives.
- Stahl says 94 percent of investigations into settler violence against Palestinians close without indictments. She didn't specify the period or total number of investigations. That figure can't predict what will happen to these detainees.
- The custody periods being cited end on October 20 or October 21. The actual court orders are needed to settle who remains held. Investigators still have to identify who beat Levine and explain the soldiers' conduct. Palestinian families still need protection to finish their olive harvest.

- 🇺🇸 “Lifting sanctions doesn’t mean he likes what he is seeing now.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Saturday the US is "very disturbed" by video of Israeli settlers beating Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine, but offered no consequences beyond asking Israel to act. On Jan. 20, 2025, his first day back in office, President Trump revoked Biden’s executive order authorizing sanctions against Israeli settlers and groups involved in violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. Secretary of State Rubio, when asked about the move today, didn’t express regret, and said that the revocations against violent Israeli settlers didn’t mean he wanted to see violence in the West Bank. Last month, Rubio said "obviously" the US would not join the UK in restricting trade with settlements.The Israeli groups that were removed from sanctions include the following, according to Treasury’s removal list: ➤ Hilltop Youth: Violent settler movement responsible fo...
- Read this figure again and again: an average of 10.9 incidents of settler and soldier violence every day. Today, we are publishing data that illustrate the scale of violence directly linked to the olive harvest: * 21 incidents of violence and physical assaults against olive harvesters * 24 incidents in which settlers or soldiers prevented olive harvesting * 75 incidents of crop theft * 22 incidents of damage to and destruction of olive trees * At least 28 incidents in which soldiers were documented as present In total: 109 incidents of settler and soldier violence across 75 Palestinian communities throughout the West Bank in just 10 days. More than 100 cases of violence against Palestinians documented by Yesh Din before the olive harvest season had even officially begun demonstrate that settler and military violence is not random. Rather, it is part of an Israeli policy with a clear objective: to prevent Palestinians from harvesting their olives, inflict economic harm on Palestinian...
- PM Netanyahu suggests American journalist is lying about being assaulted and kicked by Israeli settlers. He said “footage appears to show Levine knocked down and immediately helped to her feet by the same unidentified individual.” “The investigation must establish the facts, including who initiated the violence.” “We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.” https://t.co/NMSpYswylf
- Surprising nobody, Netanyahu statement on the beating of a Washington Post journalist:
- We appreciate the support we’ve gotten today for our photographer, Heidi Levine, after the brutal and unwarranted attack on her. We reiterate the call for action from the government. Press freedoms are a cornerstone for democracies.
- Email from executive editor Matt Murray to WaPo staff this morning responding to the incident
- To be clear: Some facts are neither in dispute nor unclear. Our photographer was clearly marked as Press. She was clearly beaten. These are not partisan or risible statements, but indisputable. We urge a thorough investigation and accountability.

- A Morning of Severe Violence Across the West Bank During the Olive Harvest. Yesh Din new data: 486 incidents of settler and soldier violence over 18 days, September 27- October 14, including 234 directly related to the olive harvest. Soldiers were documented as present in at least 62 incidents (26.5% of all incidents of violence directly related to the olive harvest). Video from the village of Turmusaya this morning shows one of the injured Palestinian farmers, a vehicle set on fire, and soldiers at the scene firing crowd-control weapons at Palestinian farmers. Footage credit: Turmusaya Municipality / Yesh Din
- Over the past two weeks (September 27 - October 10), Yesh Din collected documentation and reports of 377 incidents of settler and soldier violence against Palestinians. An average of approximately 27 incidents of violence per day, occurring in 162 Palestinian communities across the West Bank. Of these incidents, 174 were directly related to the olive harvest, and soldiers were present in 25% of them. The lack of law enforcement against violent settlers and soldiers who attack Palestinian olive harvesters, damage olive trees, and steal the harvest indicates that the obstruction of the olive harvest is part of a broader, systematic Israeli policy aimed at inflicting economic and cultural harm on Palestinians and displacing them from their land.
- This afternoon, settlers attacked farmers and homes in the village of #Turmusaya damaging four homes and injuring two residents by throwing stones. https://twitter.com/Yesh_Din/status/1878200351993606617/photo/1

- The Prime Minister’s Office: The facts surrounding the confrontation near Abu Falah, during which Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine was allegedly assaulted, remain unclear and are under investigation. Israel unequivocally condemns violence against anyone—Jews, Arabs, Christians or journalists. Those responsible will be held accountable. But serious questions remain. Reports indicate some 200 Arabs and far-left activists confronted approximately 40 Israeli youths. Footage shows masked individuals on both sides hurling objects, amid reports of fireworks fired at Jewish youths. Other footage appears to show Levine knocked down and immediately helped to her feet by the same unidentified individual. The investigation must establish the facts, including who initiated the violence. We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria. The facts must determine the conclusions. Not the h...
- NETANYAHU’S “DELINQUENT YOUTH” JUST BEAT A WASHINGTON POST JOURNALIST Remember Netanyahu’s performance at the UN General Assembly? He dismissed the perpetrators of settler violence as “a handful of delinquent youths,” reportedly numbering around 150. Today, in Abu Falah, those supposedly delinquent youths attacked Palestinian olive harvesters and brutally beat Heidi Levine, a veteran photojournalist working for The Washington Post. They kicked her while she was down and stole her equipment. She was hospitalized. So much for Netanyahu’s fairy tale. These are not merely a few undisciplined teenagers getting into trouble. This is a system of settler violence operating in occupied Palestinian territory, where Palestinian farmers are attacked, olive trees are burned, land is seized, and entire communities are driven from their homes. And the ultimate obscenity? The violence unfolds in the presence of Israeli occupation forces, while Palestinians and journalists bear the con...
- IDF: VIOLENT CONFRONTATION NEAR KHIRBET ABU FALAH DISPERSED, JOURNALIST INJURED IDF and Border Police forces were dispatched Friday to the area near Khirbet Abu Falah following reports of a violent confrontation. According to the IDF, foreign media personnel were present and a female journalist was injured during the incident. The circumstances surrounding her injury are being examined. At a separate location, IDF soldiers fired warning shots before opening fire toward a suspect who allegedly ran at them carrying a sharp object and posed an immediate threat. The confrontation was dispersed. Police and forensic investigators from the Judea and Samaria District are expected to enter the area under IDF protection to collect evidence and testimony. The IDF condemned the violence, calling attacks on innocent civilians “grave and unacceptable,” and said it will work with relevant authorities to eradicate the phenomenon.
- Earlier today, IDF and Israel Border Police forces were dispatched to an area adjacent to Khirbet Abu Falah, following a report of a violent confrontation. Foreign media personnel were present at the scene and a female journalist was injured during the confrontation. All details of the incident will be examined. Upon arriving to the scene, the forces acted to disperse the confrontation using riot dispersal means. At another location where the confrontation took place, IDF soldiers initially fired warning shots into the air and then fired toward a suspect who ran toward them, carrying a sharp object and posed a threat to them. The confrontation was dispersed. Israeli Police forces and forensic investigators from the Judea and Samaria District will enter the area with IDF security to collect findings and evidence, as well as take testimonies. Violence against innocent civilians is a grave and intolerable phenomenon that requires a coordinated, multi-agency response. The IDF will work ...
- 📷 Journalist injured near Khirbet Abu Falah: In a separate incident the previous day, IDF and Border Police forces responded to a violent confrontation near Khirbet Abu Falah, where foreign media personnel were present and a female journalist was injured. The IDF said arriving forces used riot-dispersal measures. At another location during the confrontation, soldiers fired warning shots into the air and then toward a suspect who, according to the military, ran toward them carrying a sharp object and posed a threat. The confrontation was dispersed. Police and forensic investigators were to enter under IDF protection to collect evidence and testimony. The military said all circumstances would be examined. The IDF condemned violence against innocent civilians as grave and unacceptable, saying attempts to provoke friction between populations undermine security. It pledged a coordinated response with the relevant authorities. 🌐 https://t.co/tactiIBqoI
- You can tell Jewish Israelis were the aggressors. If Palestinians did anything like this, airstrikes would already be happening. Because the attackers are Jewish, a "multi-agency response" is needed.
