The latest IDF and settlers collaboration in a deadly West Bank raid has left two Palestinians dead and another wounded, exposing a deepening partnership between Israeli security forces and militant settlers. The incident in Deir Jarir late Sunday night is part of a troubling escalation in settler violence across the occupied territory.
The Raid on Deir Jarir
According to Palestinian residents, settlers from a nearby outpost arrived after 9pm claiming to search for stolen livestock. Israeli soldiers and police soon joined, providing cover as settlers attempted to seize sheep by force. When villagers gathered, soldiers opened fire, killing Odeh Farajna, 53, and Abdul Adel Rashid Abu Mukh, 26.

Saber Ajaj, a relative of Farajna, described finding him with a gunshot wound to the chest. “The moment I put him in the car I knew that he was dead. This shooting was meant to kill,” Ajaj said during funeral receptions. Adel Rashid, father of the younger victim, stated that settlers stole 21 of his sheep and 50 from another villager.
Settler-Military Collaboration
Video evidence shows an IDF soldier in green camouflage protecting a settler leading a sheep out of a home. Residents report multiple attacks each month where settlers, backed by security forces, steal livestock. “It’s a partnership between the army and the settlers,” said Adel Rashid. This pattern has accelerated under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right coalition, which has intensified land grabs in the West Bank.
