BETHLEHEM, May
12, 2013 (WAFA) – An Israeli settler from the illegal settlement of Efrat,
south of the Bethlehem Sunday prevented a farmer entry to his land near the
town of al-Khader, west of Bethlehem, said witnesses.
The land’s
owner, Nader Subeih, 35, told WAFA in a phone call that he and his wife wanted
to enter their land located near Efrat, but an Israeli “security officer” confiscated
his Identity card and threatened them to leave using a weapon.
He said that
the settler told him not to attempt accessing his land again or he will face
charges and detention because the land belongs to the nearby settlement.
Subeih said,
“We have been constantly suffering since 2000 and repeatedly being prevented entry to
our land.”
