Burin, Nablus District: Settlers stone Palestinian cars in the presence of soldiers

On 21 January 2021, at around 8:30 P.M., some 10 settlers threw stones at a car belonging to ‘Abd al-Karim Abu Shhadeh (48), a father of seven from Burin, near the entrance to the village on the Huwarah-Yitzhar road. Several soldiers were present at the scene. The settlers smashed the car’s side window and damaged its chassis.

The residents of Burin, which is flanked by the settlements of Har Bracha and Yitzhar, have been suffering from repeated attacks by settlers for years. Yitzhar was established in the 1980s about a kilometer south of the village, and Har Bracha was established about a kilometer to the northeast, both on land belonging to Burin and neighboring villages.
