Hebron: A 16-year-old child was injured Sunday in an attack by Israeli settlers in Masafer Yatta, located south of Hebron, according to local sources.

According to Qatar News Agency, a group of settlers attacked the home of a Palestinian citizen in the Al-Touba area of Masafer Yatta. During the assault, the 16-year-old child sustained injuries and bruises to his head. He was subsequently transferred to Yatta Governmental Hospital, where his injuries were described as moderate.

Raids and arrests in the West Bank have significantly escalated since the start of the genocide war on the Gaza Strip in October 2023. These operations have intensified across various governorates, targeting numerous areas and thousands of young men, making them a key tool of the "collective punishment policy" against Palestinians.
