Member of Beta local council Hamed Jaghub sent the pictures.

During the olive harvest, about 15 settlers living in tents near Evyatar outpost came down to the olive harvesters in the Jabal Qammas area, harassed them and did not enable them to work – but the harvesters managed to chase them away. A few minutes later, an auxiliary force of about 100 settlers, several armed, jumped at the harvesters, beat them up and wounded several who need medical attention (several still hospitalized).
Maissar Dahoud received treatment and came back home.
Bassem Issa Dahoud is still in hospital.
Abu Nimer was beat up in the head and still is in hospital.
