Mousa Abu Maria, along with international solidarity activists were working in agricultural land belonging to residents of Beit Ommar near the Israeli settlement Karmei Tsur, when they were attacked by settlers. Israeli military forces arrived and attacked Mousa, hitting him in the head with a rifle before arresting. We believe he will be held at least until Thursday.
