This evening, Sunday, 4 citizens were injured in a settler attack on the Arab Rashaida community adjacent to the Auja Spring, north of Jericho.

The general supervisor of the "Al-Baidar" organization for defending the rights of Bedouins, Hassan Malihat, said that settlers attacked the Arab Rashaida community adjacent to the Al-Auja Spring area, and attacked citizens by beating them with sticks and stones, which led to 4 citizens suffering bruises and wounds.

He added that these settlers tried to steal the people’s sheep, and that these attacks came after the visit of the extremist Israeli Minister Smorich and the head of the settlement council in the West Bank to the area, and their announcement of control over the Al-Auja water spring and carrying out expansion work in it.
