SALFIT (Ma'an) -- Israeli settlers set up a large steel structure at the roundabout of the Haris village in the northern occupied West Bank city of Salfit, on Monday morning.

Locals reported that large numbers of Israeli settlers camped inside the steel structure, under armed security by Israeli forces.

Locals expressed fear that setting up the structure could be a start for a series of assaults against them and their properties in the village.

Israeli forces had sealed off all the entrances of Haris, Kifl Haris and Deir Istiya villages in search of a Palestinian suspected of carrying out a shooting attack, near the illegal Israeli settlement of Ariel, leaving two Israelis killed and others injured.
