JERICHO, August 4, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli colonists poisoned several sheep in the Bedouin community of Shallal Al-Auja, north of Jericho, leading to their deaths.

Hassan Malihat, the general supervisor of the Al-Baidar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, explained in a statement that colonists poisoned sheep owned by Muhammad Hassan Harizat, a Palestinian herder.

Malihat affirmed that this latest attack is part of a series of ongoing violations carried out by colonists against Palestinian farmers and shepherds, with the aim of displacing Palestinian communities from their homelands.

Palestinian rural areas have witnessed a sharp surge in colonist attacks, especially since the onset of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023.
