IOF suppresses an anti-settlement protest, detains journalists in Hebron


Israeli occupation forces suppressed today a protest condemning the settlement expansion and the settlers’ repeated attacks on citizens and their properties, in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron, and detained a number of citizens and journalists.

The occupation soldiers assaulted the citizens participating in the protest, and detained a number of citizens and journalists.

The occupation army also closed the roads leading to the protest and declared it a closed military zone.

It should be noted that the occupation pursues a policy of demolishing homes in order to seize the residents' lands and pressure them to displace from the area in favor of expanding the settlements of Karmiel, Avigal, Havat Avigal, and Ma'on.
