RAMALLAH — Hundreds of armed Israeli settlers, without prior warning,
raided the villages of East Farm and Sinjil, east of Ramallah city,
which caused fierce clashes at noon Tuesday.
Eyewitnesses said that hand-to-hand fighting erupted between the
Palestinian villagers and the Israeli assailants who used their guns in
the attack.
The settler-related incidents are rarely reported in these two
villages and such sudden barbaric attack means that the settlers
expanded their area of violence against the Palestinians.
The Israeli Aasor military post, which is the largest base in the
West Bank and located near the East Farm village, was the staging point
from which the settlers waged their attack.
In another incident in Nablus, other violent Israeli settlers
appropriated Palestinians’ agricultural lands in the village of Jalud
and forcibly prevented the owners from entering them before bulldozing
them.
Local sources in the village said that the settlers bulldozed 30
dunums of plowed fields as a prelude to seizing them.
In another context, Al-Ahrar center for prisoners’ studies and human
rights said that the Israeli occupation forces stormed and ransacked
the home of prisoner Ayed Dodeen in the village of Dura in Al-Khalil
causing panic and terror among the children.
Director of the center Fouad Al-Khafsh explained that in conjunction
