Community Protection Committees have documented violations and attacks by settlers on the properties of citizens in Beit Dajan, Beit Furik, and Khirbet Tana in the Nablus Governorate. Groups of settlers, protected by the occupation army, attacked homes and properties of citizens on the outskirts of Beit Furik, resulting in one citizen being shot with live ammunition. Another group of settlers pursued residents of the town in Khirbet Tana, preventing them from entering and preventing farmers from accessing the water spring called "Ein Qouqa". Occupation forces also closed the "Beit Furik" military checkpoint for several hours, causing a severe traffic jam and preventing citizens from returning to their homes in villages and towns located behind the checkpoint. Additionally, settlers attempted to set fire to homes on the outskirts of Beit Dajan, brutally beat farmers in the vicinity of the town, expelled them from their lands, and prevented farmers from accessing pastures to the north and east of the village. The attack on Beit Dajan resulted in the death of livestock inside barns due to the firing of gas bombs inside them, the burning of the village's pastures in the northeast area, the uprooting of olive trees in the east of the village, and the theft of agricultural equipment belonging to citizens and the destruction of solar energy cells used for lighting the streets surrounding the village.
