Occupied Al-Quds, ST) -The official in charge of the settlement resistance file in Tubas, Moataz Bisharat on Wednesday said to Wafa News Agency that settlers seized an agricultural road linking Khirbet Umm Zuqah to one of the main roads in the region and placed a fence around it.

He added that Khirbet is located on top of a mountain range in the Jordan Valley and its people suffer from constant settler attacks, as they establish a settlement outpost there and prevent Palestinian shepherds from grazing in the lands of Khirbet.
