Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - RAMALLAH — Israeli forces on Friday prevented Palestinian, Israeli and foreign activists from reaching Palestinian families whose homes have been surrounded by settlers for nearly a week in the occupied West Bank town of Qusra, south of Nablus.
Palestinians, along with foreign and left-wing Israeli activists, held a protest march in the occupied West Bank town before heading toward three Palestinian homes that have been besieged by Israeli occupiers for five consecutive days.
The protesters gathered in the Ras al-Ain area of Qusra, south of Nablus, before moving toward the besieged homes to check on the residents and deliver essential supplies, Anadolu agency reported.
The activists were trying to deliver food and water to three homes in the Ras al-Ain area on Friday, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa.
Israeli troops prevented the activists from entering the homes, claiming the area was a “closed military zone.”
The protesters, however, managed to deliver food, water and other essential supplies to the residents.
Earlier, Israeli occupiers re-erected a tent outside the homes of three Palestinian families in the Ras al-Ain area as the siege entered its fifth consecutive day.
Eyewitnesses told Anadolu that the occupiers put the tent back up outside the Palestinian homes before Israeli troops arrived and dismantled it.
The occupiers, however, continued to besiege the homes and restrict the residents’ movement, the witnesses said.
Israeli forces also remained deployed around the area, with military vehicles and soldiers continuing to enter and leave Qusra.
The developments came a day after hundreds of Israeli soldiers raided the town.
Abdul Azim Wadi, head of the town council, told Anadolu on Thursday that Israeli forces had seized 16 Palestinian homes and converted them into military barracks.
The army also evacuated residents from several homes, including families who had already been besieged by Israeli occupiers, he added.
Eyewitnesses said Israeli troops withdrew Friday morning from the Palestinian homes they had seized the previous day.
The three families in Ras al-Ain have been under siege by dozens of Israeli occupiers since Sunday.
The occupiers erected a tent and other temporary structures and blocked roads leading to the homes, while obstructing deliveries of food, water and medicine and cutting water and electricity lines, according to Palestinian accounts.
Local reports indicate that Israeli occupiers began attempts to seize the homes around four months ago.
The families fear the siege is intended to force them to leave, allowing the settlers to take over their properties.
Attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians and their property have intensified across the occupied West Bank since Israel launched its war on the Gaza Strip in October 2023, prompting Palestinian and international warnings over the growing seizure of land and homes and the displacement of residents.
