On Sunday, 6 April 2025, at around 9:00 A.M., Civil Administration personnel arrived with a bulldozer and trucks, escorted by soldiers and members of the Jordan Valley Settlement Council, to the area of Ras al-Ahmar in the Jordan Valley. The forces dismantled and confiscated eight residential tents, leaving four families – a total of 35 people, 15 of them minors – without shelter. The families had relocated to the area after settler violence drove them out of their homes in Khirbet Samrah about 20 days earlier. The forces also demolished a livestock enclosure and confiscated eight livestock pens, three water tanks, two generators, two solar panels, and two carts used for carrying goods.
