Today, Friday, settlers surrounded a house in the Beit Iskaria community, south of Bethlehem.

The head of the Beit Askaria Village Council, Muhammad Ibrahim, reported that dozens of settlers surrounded the home of citizen Nadi Abu Suway in the “Wadi Sakhit” area, one of the Beit Askaria communities, which is located near the “Alon Shvut” settlement, one of the settlements of the “Gush Etzion” settlement bloc, established on citizens’ lands. South of Bethlehem, they tried to get him out of the house, before they were confronted and forced to withdraw from the place.

Ibrahim added that settler attacks have escalated since October 7, as citizens in the area are prevented from accessing their lands to prune and plow grape trees, in addition to attacking homes and throwing stones at them.
