Today, Sunday, settlers established a new colonial outpost in the Qaoun Plain, west of the village of Bardala in the northern Jordan Valley.

The official in charge of the settlement file in the Tubas Governorate and the Northern Jordan Valley, Moataz Basharat, reported that a number of settlers brought an agricultural tractor, a water tank, fodder, and about 30 heads of cattle, and began building a new outpost west of Bardala.

He added that the settlers established the outpost near a military checkpoint of the occupation forces, which was established about two months ago.

There are more than 8 colonial outposts spread throughout the northern Jordan Valley, most of which are agricultural, through which the settlers seize thousands of dunams of pastoral land, assault Palestinian shepherds, steal their livestock, and raid their tents, in an attempt to force them to leave the pastures.
