Today, Wednesday, settlers attacked Palestinian property in the Tel Rumeida neighborhood in the Old City of Hebron , targeting the ancient "Al-Ain Al-Jadida" water spring, which is an important Palestinian historical and heritage heritage.

Last week, the settlers built a wall of stones around the wall surrounding Al-Ain.

The Director General of the Hebron Reconstruction Committee, Imad Hamdan, explained, "This eye is located at the bottom of the hill of Rumeida near the Islamic cemetery, and it is an Islamic endowment run by the Islamic Endowments Directorate. The new eye has been subjected to attacks since 2012."

Hamdan added, "The settlers are constantly building stone terraces, planting trees, or setting up signposts indicating the Jewishness of the area with the aim of turning it into a Jewish national park. It has also been included on tourist routes for Jewish settlers, which threatens to seize it."

Hamdan said, "This spring is one of the important historical and heritage monuments in the city of Hebron, which demonstrates the nobility and originality of this town's past and its Arabism. It is a spring whose waters gushed out at the end of the Mamluk era, and that is why it was called the New Spring, and the name remained common to this day, and because of the sweetness of its waters, it was used for drinking." And to irrigate the crops, which is seven meters lower than the ground level, and it descends to it by about 13 degrees.

Hamdan considered that these current and previous settlement encroachments are a serious violation and a blatant encroachment on the archaeological and historical monuments in the old city of Hebron, which enjoys an important place on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The efforts of the Hebron Rehabilitation Committee have thwarted all previous attempts by settlers to seize this important landmark, and the plantings and indicative signs around it have been removed, and it will work hard to stop all new encroachments.
