Washington Post photographer assaulted by settlers
American journalist Heidi Levin of The Washington Post was assaulted and beaten by masked settlers while she was documenting an attack on olive farmers in Abu Falah village east of Ramallah. The assault resulted in fractures for her, leading to her transfer to the hospital, despite her wearing clearly identifiable press equipment. The attack included setting fire to olive trees, throwing stones at Palestinians, and was carried out by approximately 80 settlers, with one armed settler firing shots, while Israeli soldiers intervened by firing tear gas canisters. "The Washington Post" and the journalism committee condemned the attack and called for an investigation and accountability for those responsible. This assault is considered an escalation amid a rise in attacks targeting Palestinian farmers and their livelihoods in the West Bank.
