Settlers destroy Palestinian property in south of Hebron

Israeli settlers in the south of the occupied West Bank yesterday destroyed a residential room and water tanks belonging to the Shaab Al-Batm Mixed Basic School, and solar panels in Masafer Yatta.

Local sources reported that illegal settlers destroyed a residential room and broke 70 olive seedlings belonging to citizens Mohammed and Ismail Al-Jabareen. They also destroyed two water tanks which belong to the Shaab Al-Batm area of Masafer Yatta.

Settlers also cut a water pipe belonging to the family of Issa Awad in the Tuba area in Masafer.

Previously, settlers had attacked the properties of Mohammed Jabareen, destroying an outhouse, a residential room, a water network, solar panels and damaging trees.

In this context, the occupation forces set up a military checkpoint between the towns of Samu and Yatta in the south of Hebron, checking the identities of Palestinians who travelled in the area and searching their vehicles.
