The residents obeyed out of fear, and then the settlers stole five water tanks and towed them towards the settlement of Metzad, while other settlers drove up to the community in several cars and stole items from residents’ homes. The residents filed a complaint about the settlers’ actions at the Etzion police station that same day.
