Two other reports said extremist settlers destroyed trees in Surif and burned olive trees near Nablus. A third headlined, "Military Repression of Non-Violent Demonstration in Nabi Salih as the Army Lays Siege to the Village," saying:
Israeli soldiers closed all roads and "negligently used dangerous high-velocity tear-gas projectiles," able to cause serious injuries or death. Similar attacks occur regularly throughout the West Bank and East Jerusalem as well as frequent Gaza incursions by land against civilians, including farmers; sea against fishermen; and air against neighborhoods, communities, and other non-military targets.
A This Week in Silwan headline reported "clashes, raids, arrests, and demolition orders," its residents regularly attacked. Another cited Israeli troops raiding and looting a house and commercial property belonging to a Palestinian resident. One more reported Israeli artillery and navy randomly shelling parts of Gaza and raiding Hebron homes and a mosque, arresting three. Eleven others were arrested in Jenin, Nablus, Bethlehem, and Hebron raids.
Assaults, incursions, air attacks, home invasions, demolitions, land seizures, targeted killings, crop destruction, arrests, torture, and other abuses happen regularly, the daily reality putting a lie to the sham peace talks, whether or not they resume.
