***image1***Last night youth from the village of Jayyus broke through the Wall in the village. A small group then proceeded to the site where the new path is being constructed, destroying and setting fire to building materials. Occupation forces responded by raiding the village, where they remained into the early hours of the morning.
At around six in the evening, a small group of youth from the village broke through a section of fencing near the south gate. Through the hole, they snuck across the villageâs isolated lands to the site where the new path of the Wall is being constructed. There, they destroyed and burned materials before escaping back into the village.
Soldiers in the area responded by mounting a raid on the village. A total of 15 jeeps, 9 from the regular army and 6 from the border police, drove into the village. Youth threw stones at the invading jeeps, and soldiers fired back. Jayyus was placed under curfew from seven until midnight, and soldiers remained in the village until two in the morning, firing sound bombs and using vehicle loudspeakers to prevent people from sleeping.
