HEBRON (Ma’an) -- Ma'on settlers bulldozed 100 dunums of lands that belong to Kharoubeh village on Friday, the coordinator of the popular committee against the wall and settlement said.

Rateb al-Jabour said the settlers began to bulldoze the lands early Friday in an attempt to expand the settlement.

He added that Israeli authorities are implementing a settlement scheme south of Hebron that aims to surround residents who are living between the wall and settlement.

These acts aim to "tighten the noose" on citizens and make them leave their land, he said.

Al-Jabour called on human rights organizations to intervene and stop these attacks in order to provide a decent life for the Palestinian families living there.
