Hebron - Afaq News - Israeli occupation forces arrested today, Saturday, eight citizens from the village of Adiqah in the Yatta plain south of Hebron.

Anti-settlement activist in southern Hebron, Osama Makhamra, stated that the occupation forces arrested citizens Nasser Ahmed Nasser Al-Najada, Abdul Rahman Muhammad Khalid Al-Najada, Suleiman Mahmoud Muhammad Ka'abneh, Muhammad Suleiman Awda Al-Najada, Yusuf Ahmed Muhammad Ka'abneh, Muhammad Raad Abdul Karim Amer, Awda Salem Khalid Al-Najada, and his son Salem, from the village of Adiqah, following an attack by settlers on the citizens and their attempt to steal livestock.

The settlers cut the main water line supplying the village this morning, depriving 700 citizens of water.

Settlers also attacked the home of Khairy Abu Tahfa in Khillat Al-Hums south of Yatta, assaulting his family and foreign activists with violence.

The Khillat Al-Hums area has been subjected to organized attacks by settlers for several months following the establishment of a settlement outpost about 100 meters from the citizens' homes, aiming to force them to leave and steal their lands and properties.
