Palestinians east of Tubas city organized a protest on Sunday to prevent an Israeli settler and his family from establishing a settlement outpost between al-Aqaba and Tayasir villages in the northern Jordan Valley.
Local sources told the PIC reporter that the settler brought his sheep and family to the area and threatened to establish a settlement outpost in the place of Tayasir military camp which was evacuated by the Israeli army years ago.
They pointed out that clashes broke out following the protest in which a number of Palestinian citizens suffered tear gas inhalation.
The Committee Against Wall and Settlements affirmed that the Palestinian citizens in the village will continue their protests to foil the Israeli settlers’ plan to impose a new fait accompli in the area.
