Israeli illegal settlers have destroyed the only water supply line serving a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank, cutting off access to water for residents amid ongoing illegal settlement expansion work, according to local sources.
The sources told Anadolu agency that the forces bulldozed Palestinian land and destroyed the main and only water pipeline supplying Umm Safa village, northwest of Ramallah, while paving a new settlement road near the area.
The attack left the village without running water.
Umm Safa has witnessed escalating aggression by Israeli forces from surrounding illegal settlements and outposts, increasingly preventing Palestinians from accessing their farmland.
Occupied West Bank has seen a surge in attacks by Israeli illegal settlers and the Israeli army targeting Palestinian agricultural land, including arson attacks, bulldozing destructions and restrictions on farmers’ access to their property, particularly near illegal settlements and outposts.
