Just weeks earlier, on October 17, settlers raided a farm owned by the al-Darbani family in al-Manatir, stabbing and killing 20 sheep.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nOn Wednesday, Israeli forces began bulldozing swaths of agricultural land in the northeastern area of the village of Tura, adjacent to the separation wall southwest of Jenin.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe land belongs to local residents and includes centuries-old olive trees and cultivated farmland.
