On October 16, Israeli settlers attacked Palestinians during the olive harvest in the occupied West Bank, setting fire to cars and trees in at least eight Palestinian villages. Around 80 masked settlers, armed with clubs and slingshots, assaulted residents and an American journalist, Heidi Levine from The Washington Post, leaving her hospitalized with multiple injuries including four fractured vertebrae and two broken ribs. Video footage showed soldiers firing tear gas but failing to stop the attacks. Later reports indicated that nine out of ten suspects arrested for these incidents were released under house arrest, raising concerns about accountability and protection for both Palestinians and journalists covering such events. Rights groups criticize Israeli authorities for insufficient action against settler violence, which has surged this year amid accusations of "ethnic cleansing."
