AL-KHALIL (PIC)– A group of settlers from the infamous Kiryat Arba settlement established on the lands of the Palestinian city of Al-Khalil on Wednesday seized by force the land lot of a Palestinian citizen located between Kiryat Arab and the Old City of Al-Khalil.
Eyewitnesses said that the settlers pitched tents on the confiscated land owned by Mahmoud Jaber then closed the road leading to it with barricades.
The armed settlers banned civilians living nearby from getting out of their homes and restricted their movement in the area.
Settlers of Kiryat Arba are notorious for their repeated assaults on Palestinian civilians in Al-Khalil.
