HEBRON (Ma’an) -- A number of settlers from Beit Ain settlement damaged agricultural lands near Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, and uprooted 25 trees, a local activist said Thursday.

Mohammed Awad said the trees were owned by Hammad Abdul Hamid Slabee, who has lost more than 200 trees in six attacks since last summer.

The land is his only source of income, Awad said.
