Groups of Israeli settlers launched a large-scale attack on the industrial zone in the town of Beita, south of Nablus, on Monday evening. They set fire to three bulldozers, several vehicles, and heavy equipment belonging to stone quarries, causing material damage to property. Palestinian security sources told WAFA news agency that dozens of settlers participated in the assault, which occurred amid rising tensions in the town.

Concurrently with the settlers' attack, Israeli forces entered Beita. Local sources reported that residents rushed to the industrial zone to try to extinguish the fires and confront the assault.

The industrial zone in Beita has been subjected to repeated attacks targeting its facilities, vehicles, and equipment. These incidents are part of a broader increase in settler violence against Palestinian property, economic, and agricultural installations across the West Bank.

According to the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, Israeli forces and settlers carried out a total of 3,133 attacks against Palestinians, their property, and land in October. Of these, 1,369 were perpetrated by settlers, with the Nablus Governorate alone recording 353 such incidents.
