West Bank: Israeli settlers attack foreign activists south of Hebron

Settlers attacked foreign activists and destroyed agricultural crops, today, Thursday, in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron.

According to local sources, settlers blocked the path of a group of foreign activists in the “Aqawawis” area of Musafer Yatta, and assaulted them in an attempt to prevent them from documenting the attacks on people and their property in that area.

In the village of Tuba, armed settlers, protected by the occupation army, raided and searched a number of citizens’ homes, while other settlers destroyed agricultural crops for a number of citizens near Wadi Al-Jawaya, and released their herds of livestock into the citizens’ fields, after preventing them from accessing them.

In the same context, the Israeli  forces detained for several hours the citizens Musa Al-Shawaheen and Rasim Al-Nawaja’a in the Ikhal Al-Adra area, after destroying large areas of agricultural crops belonging to Al-Nawaja’a.
