Some Israeli crimes seem less than others, but they rely on time and persistence and go largely unnoticed. On December 25, 2025, in the Al-Auja spring area of Jericho in the West Bank, settlers deliberately released livestock in front of Palestinian homes to harass them, as part of a strategy of constant harassment aimed at forcing Palestinians to leave their homes. In the village of Beitillu near Ramallah, settlers stole a car, and in the town of Beit Fajjar near Hebron, other settlers set fire to a bulldozer. Small crimes, but they never stop.
