Israeli colonists open fire at electricity transformer in Slafit, causing complete power outage


SALFIT: For the third time in a row, Israeli colonists caused a power outage in the village of Yasuf, east of Salfit, since the night hours.

The head of the Yasuf village council, Wael Abu Madi, said that a group of Israeli colonists from the illegal colony of Tafuh, built on citizens’ lands, opened fire at the electricity transformer, which led to a complete power outage.

Meanwhile, the occupation forces prevented the village council crews and technicians from repairing the fault and expelled them from the place.

Abu Madi added, “This is the third time that colonists have caused a power outage in the village, as they previously destroyed and burned the electricity room feeding the village, which caused a significant damage to citizens and shop owners.
