JORDAN VALLEY: Armed Israeli settlers, under the protection of the Israeli military, blocked Palestinian herders this morning from grazing their livestock in open pastures in the northern Jordan Valley, northeast of the occupied West Bank, according to local sources.

Human rights activist Aaref Draghmah reported that the settlers, under the escort of Israeli forces, brought their cattle to graze in the open pastures in the region after coercing Palestinians to leave the area under the threat of weapons.
