Jericho: For the second time today, groups of Israeli colonists renewed their attacks on the Arab al-Malihat Bedouin community northwest of Jericho, according to a local official.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, Hassan Malihat, the general supervisor of the Al-Baydar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, reported that the colonists, some riding motorcycles, launched a new assault on the northern side of the village. During the attack, they released their livestock to graze on fodder belonging to local residents.
