JERICHO, Wednesday, April 24, 2024 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists today raided Ras Ain Nabaa al-Auja community, north of the city of Jericho.

Hassan Mleihat, the supervisor of the Al-Baidar organization for defending the rights of the Bedouins, said that a group of Israeli colonists broke into a house belonging to a local resident of the community and took photos of the livestock and the house.

In the meantime, the colonists claimed that the heads of cows were stolen from them.

Bedouin communities residing in the region east of the occupied West Bank heavily rely on livestock breeding and herding. These activities are essential for their livelihoods in regions where Israeli restrictions hinder the development of infrastructure.

Colonist violence has long since become part of Palestinians’ daily life under occupation. Israeli security forces enable these actions, which result in Palestinians casualties – injuries and fatalities – as well as damage to land and property. In some cases, they even serve as an armed escort, or even join in the attacks," said the Israeli information center for human rights in occupied territories, B’Tselem.
