1/3 About ten settlers, among them Yissakhar Man — one of the owners of the outpost Mishkeh Man — invaded the village of Tuba today, some of them armed, and entered the courtyards of homes. The police made sure to show up the moment the settlers had already left the area.

2/3 Based on previous incidents, the goal of this kind of action is to provoke the villagers into trying to expel them, and then to launch a wave of assaults and arrests — in full cooperation with the army, police, and the media.

3/3 The village of Tuba is regularly attacked by settlers and by the terror authorities. In recent months alone, settlers set fire to a vehicle in the village, residents have been attacked several times by settlers and then arrested afterward, and the village’s shepherds are driven off their grazing lands on a daily basis.

Settlers from the Mishkeh Man outpost, including Yissakhar Man, are used to invade the Palestinian village of Tuba, some armed, entering private courtyards and watering their flocks at the villagers’ water source.

These actions are part of a recurring pattern: provocations meant to elicit a reaction from residents, followed by settler violence, arrests, and full cooperation from Israeli police, army, and media.

In recent months, Tuba has faced ongoing settler violence, including arson, physical assaults, arrests of victims, and daily expulsion of shepherds from grazing lands.
