Every Saturday, the Israeli regime allows groups of extremist settlers to storm the Old City of al-Khalil in the occupied West Bank. Settler attacks under military protection force Palestinian shop owners to close their stores and stay away from the streets.

Locals say these repeated incursions aim to alter the city’s historical identity and make daily life unbearable.
