Today, Saturday, settlers attacked a shepherd while he was grazing his sheep, north of the town of Deir Istiya, northwest of Salfit, and threatened him with weapons.
Anti-settlement activist Nazmi Salman said that four armed settlers attacked citizen Ghassan Salman (28 years old) while he was grazing his sheep in the pastoral land in the Ad-Duhur area. They beat him and sprayed pepper gas in his eyes.
He added that the settlers threatened Salman with weapons to make him leave the land, and tried to steal his sheep.
In turn, the mayor of Deir Istiya, Firas Diab, explained that the Salman family, which has been working in livestock breeding for years, is constantly exposed to attacks by settlers residing in the outpost they established in the Ad-Duhur area months ago.
He stressed that settler attacks have been repeated, especially in recent days, on shepherds in the Salfit Governorate.
