This morning, Israeli settlers stormed the villages of Ma’in and Karmel, south of Yatta in the southern occupied West Bank, and stole over 200 sheep and goats belonging to Palestinian shepherds.

Upon withdrawing with the stolen livestock, Palestinian residents attempted to recover their animals and fend off the settlers.

Israeli occupation forces then stormed the area alongside the settlers, firing at the Palestinians to cover the settlers' retreat with the stolen herd.
