Some of the village’s youth gathered and forced the settlers to leave Kafr Manda. One of the young men told Arab48 “the settlers lit candles and scattered papers, along with strange manuscripts.”

The settlers planned this provocation and said that Al-Ayn Square is of religious significance to them and that they had rights to it
