Nablus – Ma’an – Israeli settlers from the illegal Yitzhar settlement south of Nablus set fire to bales of harvested barley in a large field owned by a Nablus farmer Friday morning.
The owner, 37-year-old Muhammad Rida, had harvested half the crop on Thursday and stacked the grains to dry in the field near Khallat As-Siwar south of Nablus.
When he arrived to the field Friday morning to finish harvesting the crop he saw dozens of settlers setting fire to the bales.
“This is not the first time they have done this,” Rida commented. The entire crop was burned.
