Colonists attack shepherds and civilians near Hebron

HEBRON: Israeli colonists, under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces, attacked Palestinian shepherds and citizens in Khirbet Zanouta, east of the town of Adh Dhahiriya, south of Hebron. WAFA correspondent reported that colonists, under the protection of the occupation forces, attacked the shepherds and citizens with their horses, expelled them from their lands, prevented them from approaching their wells and watering their livestock, and tampered with their drinking water and poured it on the ground, in Khirbet Zanouta, adjacent to the 'Shama' coloy, which was built on citizens' lands east of the town of Adh Dhahiriya. According to the citizens of the village of Zanouta, the occupation and its colonists seek, through these attacks, to expel citizens from their lands and properties, with the aim of stealing dozens of dunums of land from citizens who live in the village and have documents and ownership deeds for their lands that they inherited from their fathers and grandfathers hundreds of years ago.
