    Israeli occupiers established a new illegal settlement outpost on
    Palestinian land east of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank on Monday,
    while three Palestinians were injured in an occupier attack near
    Hebron, according to Palestinian organizations.

    The Bedouin rights group Al-Baydar said in a statement that occupiers
    erected a new outpost in the Jisr al-Khala area near the town of
    Rummon, east of Ramallah.

    The organization said Israeli occupiers set up a tent and installed
    mobile homes on land belonging to Palestinian residents.

    Attempts to seize the area aim to forcibly displace Palestinians, it
    said, warning the outpost could become a launch point for oterror
    attackso against residents in the area.

    Separately, Israeli occupiers attacked Palestinian vehicles Monday
    evening on a road linking the town of Deir Dibwan and the village of
    Rummon east of Ramallah, though no injuries were reported.

    In the southern West Bank, three Palestinians were injured after
    occupiers assaulted them near the town of Halhul north of Hebron,
    according to the Palestine Red Crescent Society.

    The medical group said its crews treated three people wounded in the
    attack and transferred them to a hospital.

    Earlier, the official Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission said
    Israeli forces and occupiers carried out 1,637 attacks across the West
    Bank in April, including 540 carried out by occupiers.

    The commission said occupiers attempted to establish 21 new illegal
    settlement outposts during the month, most of them on agricultural and
    pastoral sites.

    According to the commission, seven of the attempted outposts were in
    the Hebron area, three in Bethlehem, four in Ramallah and Al-Bireh,
    five in Nablus, and one each in Jenin and Tubas.

    About 750,000 Israeli occupiers live in the occupied West Bank,
    including around 250,000 in East Jerusalem, according to Palestinian
    estimates. The settlements are considered illegal under international
    law.

    Since the start of the genocide in Gaza in October 2023, Israeli
    forces and occupiers have intensified operations across the West Bank,
    killing at least 1,155 Palestinians, wounding about 11,750 others and
    arresting nearly 22,000 people, according to Palestinian figures.
