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.

It's peanuts, compared to this!

An honest question: if Muslims are so keen on killing each other... then
is it any wonder they also keep attacking Israel, which is then forced
to defend itself?

A brief summary of the Muslim vs. Muslim violence -- 21st century only ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Since the turn of the century, the death toll from internal conflicts within the Arab and Muslim world has reached staggering heights, with some comprehensive
estimates suggesting that as many as 12.5 million people have perished when accounting for both direct violence and the catastrophic indirect effects of war.
The Syrian Civil War alone has claimed over 614,000 lives, while the conflict in
Yemen resulted in roughly 377,000 deaths by 2022, nearly 60% of which were caused by famine and disease rather than combat. In Sudan, the current civil war
has seen estimates rise toward 400,000 deaths, with a heartbreaking projected loss of over 520,000 children due to malnutrition-related causes by late 2025. When combined with the high numbers of casualties in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Somalia-where the collapse of healthcare systems and deliberate blockades of
food and water have turned treatable conditions into fatal ones-the total number
of Muslims and Arabs who have died in these intra-faith or intra-ethnic power struggles far exceeds those lost in any other contemporary global conflict.
