Jerusalem: Israeli occupation forces assaulted a number of foreign solidarity activists on Saturday at the Bedouin community of Khallet al-Sedra near the village of Mekhmas, northeast of occupied Jerusalem, and forcibly expelled them from the site.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, the Jerusalem Governorate reported that the forces coerced the international activists to evacuate the community. This event has stirred concerns among local residents and activists, especially following a recent incident where several people were injured, and homes along with vehicles were set on fire during a colonist attack on the community.
Additionally, more than twenty Israeli colonists gathered near Khallet al-Sedra during the evacuation, heightening fears of potential violence similar to past incidents. The presence of the colonists amid the forced evacuation has added to the tension in the area, with both local and international observers closely monitoring the situation.
