The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Monday set up a new iron gate in Ras al-Ahmar area on al-Beqi’ah plains south of Tubas in the northern West Bank.
Local activist Moataz Bisharat said that the gate was aimed to separate the Palestinian-owned lands on al-Beqi’ah plains and the northern Jordan Valley from each other.
Bisharat noted that the gate would make it difficult for landowners to move between the two areas.
Earlier on the same day an Israeli bulldozer razed an agricultural road used by Palestinian farmers in the same area which caused damage to a water pipeline.
