Today, Sunday, a group of settlers attacked trucks loaded with food supplies that were on their way to the Gaza Strip, near the Tarqumiya crossing, west of Hebron.

Drivers reported that settlers stopped the trucks, after they left the Tarqumiya crossing on the Israeli side, and attacked them and destroyed the trucks’ loads.

For his part, Adel Amr from the Shipping Syndicate said that drivers are now afraid of settlers’ attacks on them and the destruction of the food contents of their trucks, in addition to the destruction and damage of their trucks.

One of the merchants said that the settlers’ terrorism and attacks on trucks are the reason for the increase in shipping costs from the Tarqumiya crossing to the Kerem Shalom crossing in Gaza from 5,000 shekels to 20,000 due to the great danger from the settlers. They do not only target food supplies, but they deliberately destroy the trucks with comprehensive destruction
