Locals said that Jewish settlers raided the Khirbet Umm Nir village, south of Yatta in southern Hebron district, and the village of Susiya, in the same district.
They added that Jewish settlers performed religious rituals while in the area and called for the displacement of the Palestinian people from their lands.
Settlers regularly storm Palestinian areas in the occupied West Bank to carry out religious rituals under the protection of the Israeli army. Palestinians who try to resist such visits are met with violence and are often detained.
