On December 28, 2011, Israeli dozers leveled 8 dunums of Palestinian agricultural lands. Eyewitnesses stated that Israeli troops accompanied by officers of the so-called Civil Administration and two dozers broke into the village. The dozers commenced a leveling campaign that straightened 8 dunums of agricultural lands while damaging the retaining walls and uprooting olive and prune trees in the process.
