On Tuesday, 15 August 2023, at around 8:00 A.M., soldiers arrived in a military jeep and D9 bulldozer at the community of Ras al-Ahmar in the northern Jordan Valley and dug a 500-meter trench east of the community. The soldiers destroyed dozens of dunams (a dunam equals 1000 square meters) of farmland owned by the residents of the villages of Tubas and Tammun, as well as dirt roads that enabled travel between the communities in the area and farmland.
