Eight settlers believed to be from Adei Ad and nearby outposts came to al-Mughayyir, withdrew, and returned with about 50 settlers and a group of soldiers. The settlers burned two residential tents, two water pump motors, a mobile latrine and a kitchen, destroyed four solar panels and 50 beehives, and cut and burned a fence around farmland. Soldiers fired live ammunition, rubber bullets and tear gas, shooting and injuring two Palestinians; one person was physically assaulted and three were treated for tear gas inhalation. The forces kept medical teams and fire brigades away. Two households, ten people including six children, were displaced for the third time in under a year.
