A number of settlers from "Tekoa" settlement, which is built on citizens ´lands in the town of Tuqu´, to the east of Bethlehem, have erected a number of tents on large lands belonging to the citizens.
These settlers, who were carrying machine guns, planted dozens of trees, and this new assault was carried out under the protection and escort of the occupation soldiers who prevented the owners of the land from accessing it to defend it.
Activists from the town reported that the aforementioned step by the settlers aims to seize tens of dunams and annex them to the aforementioned settlement, noting that settlers´ attacks on lands do not stop, and that their goal is always to fatten and enlarge the settlement at the expense of the Palestinian lands.
