Armed settlers attack shepherds in Hebron

In a recent incident in the Al-Thala area of Masafer Yatta, located south of Hebron, a mob of settlers attacked on shepherds. The settlers physically assaulted the shepherds and forcefully prevented them from accessing their pastures using weapons.

Local Palestinian sources said that an armed group of settlers from the eastern region of Yatta assaulted the shepherds belonging to the Awad Makhamra family.

They pursued the livestock, held the shepherds at gunpoint, and prohibited them from entering the Al-Thala area where their pastures are located.
