Resident Monsur Monsur, whose family owns the homes and vehicles, said the settlers arrived through nearby hills around 2:30am, torching the cars and scrawling Hebrew graffiti that read “revenge.” “These attacks have increased over the past two years,” Monsur said. “They’re not random. They seem organised, supported, and funded to scare us into leaving our town.” He added that many residents hold American citizenship but face the same violence as other Palestinians. “Settlers don’t care if we’re Americans or Palestinians,” he said. “It’s not fair how the US reacts to attacks on Israelis compared with attacks on American Palestinians.” Violent attacks by Israeli settlers have increased since 7 October 2023. Ocha registered 1,400 instances of settler violence in 2024 and more than 1,000 cases so far in 2025. Since the start of this year’s olive harvest, which runs from October to late December, more than 158 settler attacks, carried out under the protection of the Israeli army, have been documented by the Palestinian Colonisation and Wall Resistance Commission.
