On 19 March 2020, about 50 settlers threw stones at a home under construction in the Bab al-Wad neighborhood, located in the northeastern part of the village. The home belongs to Muhannad Yasin, 46. The settlers broke about 40 young fruit trees Yasin had planted in his yard about two years ago, damaged a 1.5-cubic-meter water tank and cut pipes running from the tank into taps inside the house. The settlers damaged a water tank in a neighboring house, as well.
The homeowner contacted the Palestinian DCO, which informed the Israeli DCO, but no one came. The owner says he feels as though the Israelis are ignoring his pleas and giving the settlers free rein to attack village residents.
