On Saturday, 15 November 2025, at around 9:00 P.M., Israeli soldiers arrived at the eastern entrance to the town of Sinjil and opened the metal gate installed by the military, which is usually kept closed.
That night, Sunday, 16 November 2025, at around 2:00 A.M., security cameras captured a white car driving through that entrance and stopping close to nearby homes. Three masked settlers got out of the car holding sharp objects and clubs, while the driver remained inside. The settlers immediately began puncturing the tires of four parked cars and then, all three, in a coordinated fashion, turned to smashing the cars’ windows and mirrors with the clubs they were holding.
The three then got back into the car and drove off in the direction of Route 60.
Four days later, on 19 November 2025, at around 2:30 A.M., a white car was captured entering the village of a-Taybah, which lies about nine kilometers from Sinjil. The car came from the direction of the village’s southern entrance, stopped close to nearby homes, and three masked settlers holding clubs and sharp objects got out. One was holding a large hammer. Again, they immediately began puncturing the tires of two parked cars and smashing their windows. The settlers also smashed windowpanes in one of the houses and then got back into their car, where the driver was waiting, and drove off.
