On the evening of 4 June 2025 dozens of Israeli settlers (a resident put the number at 80) attacked the outskirts of Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah, setting fire to homes, vehicles, sheep pens and a horse stable and throwing stones at residents. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported seven people injured, two of them hospitalised; Middle East Eye, citing local sources, reported many more wounded and dozens affected by smoke. According to residents, the army arrived more than an hour after the fires began and prevented residents from putting them out, and an ambulance was turned back at a military barrier.
