HEBRON, May 7, 2015 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Thursday planted explosive mines and placed a barbered wire around a water spring in Um Lasfeh area to the south of Hebron, depriving locals of a main water source used by shepherds for grazing purposes, said a local activist.
Coordinator of the anti wall and settlement national committee, Rateb Jabour, informed WAFA that Israeli forces planted mines and placed a 250-square-meter long barbered wire around the spring, preventing locals’ access to it.
He called on all relevant sides to intervene and protect the locals from Israel’s ‘arrogant’ measures, which he stressed, aim to force Palestinians out of their land in order to hand it over to illegal settlers.
