The last Palestinian families in the Umm al-Jimal community in the northern Jordan Valley were forced to dismantle their homes and forcibly leave the community, under the pressure of settler attacks in the area, which are taking place under the protection and cover of the Israeli occupation forces.

According to local sources, 14 families left the Umm al-Jimal community after settlers' attacks on the area escalated, including their occupation of water springs, closing of pastures, storming and violating homes, giving children and women entertainment, seizing vehicles and agricultural tractors, stealing livestock, and even establishing a pastoral settlement outpost near homes within the community.

The official in charge of the settlement file in Tubas and the northern Jordan Valley Governorate, Moataz Basharat, said that the last Palestinian families in the community left their homes and moved to another safer place, due to the escalation of settler violations against the residents, explaining that the forced migration of families from the community began months ago.

According to the semi-annual report of the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, the measures of the Israeli occupation and its settlers have led to the displacement of 5 Palestinian Bedouin communities consisting of 18 families with 118 individuals, since the beginning of this year, in addition to 24 Palestinian Bedouin communities consisting of 266 families including 1,517 individuals, who were displaced from their places of residence to other places after October 7, 2023.

The five communities are: Matla Dhib-Jiftlik and Ein Sukhn in the Jericho and Jordan Valley Governorate, Al-Nasariyah in the Nablus Governorate, Al-Farisiyah in the Tubas and Northern Jordan Valley Governorate, and Wadi Ubayyat in the Bethlehem Governorate.
