Hebron - Saba:
Today, Thursday, settlers proceeded to plow citizens' lands planted with winter crops in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron.

Media activist Osama Makhamreh said, according to the Palestinian News Agency, that settlers proceeded to plow the land of citizen Khalil Ishaq al-Jabarin, planted with wheat and barley, in the Shaab al-Batm area, which led to its damage.

Settlers also released their livestock in large areas of agricultural crops in the Khirbet Sadat al-Tha'la, in Masafer Yatta, owned by the Alian and Awad families, with the aim of destroying and vandalizing them.

Makhamreh pointed out that the settlers' daily attacks on citizens' property, crops, pastures and livestock aim to forcibly displace them from their lands for the benefit of colonial expansion.

Last month, settlers carried out 318 acts of vandalism and theft of citizens’ property, which affected large areas of land, and resulted in the uprooting of 969 trees, including 960 olive trees, 350 of which were in the Hebron Governorate, 328 in Bethlehem, 160 in Salfit, 100 in Nablus, and 31 in Ramallah.
