BETHLEHEM, Sunday, June 23, 2024 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists this evening attacked Palestinian farmers while they were tending their land; located in the middle of the colony of Betar Illit, established illegally on Palestinian citizens’ lands in Husan village, west of Bethlehem.
One of the farmers, Mashhour Hamamreh, said the occupation granted a limited number of farmers access to their land after a ban on their entry that lasted for more than eight months.
The farmer said they were surprised by more than 20 colonists, including some armed when they reached the land. The colonists attacked farmers and pelted them with stones upon their arrival. Several people barely managed to survive the attack, according to Hamamreh.
