HEBRON (Ma'an) -- Israeli forces escorted staff members from the Israeli Civil Administration and raided water pump rooms in al-Tuwani village, east of Yatta City, in the southern occupied West Bank district of Hebron, on Sunday.

Coordinator of a local popular committee, Fouad al-Umour, said staff members from the Israeli Civil Administration raided water pump rooms in the village and searched for the water pipelines feeding the eastern part of Masafer Yatta with water, in an prelude to cut off water supply to Palestinian residents.

Al-Umour added that this measure aims at forcing the residents to leave the area in order to take over the land for the benefit of Israeli settlement expansion.
