The Maan News Agency reported Monday that Israeli settlers from the Kiryat Arba settlement posted, on Saturday at night, eviction leaflets in Palestinian communities near Hebron. Residents said that the leaflets warned owners to leave their homes and halt all in progress construction activities. The leaflets were posted around Wadi al-Hussein and Jaber neighborhood in east Hebron.
The leaflets led to clashes between locals and settlers. Resident Bassam al-Ja’bari said that fistfights took place between the locals and settlers while Israeli soldiers stood by.
He called on Hebron’s Palestinian municipality to supply the residents of those areas with documents that proved their ownership of the area to resist settler takeovers.
