The Jordan Valley turned into Scorched Earth

January 4, 2013
in Israeli Violations
The Jordan Valley turned into Scorched Earth

 


 

 

Violation: Israeli Military Training.

Date: January 3, 2013.

Perpetrators: the Israeli Occupation Army.

Victims: over 50 households in the Jordan Valley area.

 

Details:

 

While Palestinian farmers prepare for the new rainy season and while hoping for a blissful season with much water for a prosperous agricultural season. However, the Israelis who have been targeting the Jordan Valley for a long time are trying to break the people and drive them out.

 

At the beginning of every rainy season, the Israeli Army embarks on military trainings conducted in Palestinian agricultural lands; these skirmishes resulted in destroying large fields as well as the death of a number of ruminants.

 

The Israeli Occupation Army ordered 50 Palestinian families in the communities of Humsa, Mayta, Al Burj, Hamamat al Maleh, Ein Hilwa, and Ibzeq to evacuate their villages within 24 hours for that purpose.

Pictures 1-8: evictions

 

The Israeli skirmishes resulted in the destruction of over 300 dunums of grain fields which belonged to 23 families.

 







 






 

Picture 9-11: damage

 

Since October, 2012, the Israeli Occupation Army declared huge areas as closed military zones. Agricultural fields were destroyed but also a large number of ruminants were confiscated for being in a ‘closed military zone’.

 

On January 7, 2013, the Israeli Occupation Army 23 goats property of Raed S’ifan (14) and Rahil Ka’abna (9). Rahil commented: ‘the Israeli Occupation Army has been detaining the goats till today and refuse to release then unless we pay the 2000 ILS penalty imposed on us‘. 

 

Usually, goats are detained for a while before the owner is forced to pay a penalty.

 

Mohammad al Mallah, legal advisor in Tubas Governorate, said: ‘the Israeli Occupation Authorities do not intend to confiscate goats only but they also tend to exhaust the Palestinians economically and pressure them to leave. Many of these goats die while detained‘. He said that the owners are forced to pay huge amounts of money to release the goats (50 to 100 $ per head and 40 $ per day in detention).

 

Many communities were turned into shooting grounds such as Mayta, which forced the locals to flee. The Israelis banned international activists and the press from accessing the area to keep the world in the dark on what is happening.
