Morning
זנותא - עם פייס, ראש מועצת הכפר
בדרך חזרה התחילו את החריש והמראה כל כך יפה שלא התאפקתי וצרפתי תמונה

We went to Zanuta to meet Fares, who is Abu Safi's son-in-law. We brought him an oxygen device that Muhammad had obtained for him as he suffers from a severe heart disease. We also left loaded with toys that Snait had given us.

At the Meitar checkpoint, the parking lot was full. Life goes on "as usual". Before the checkpoint to Zanuta a military vehicle was standing on the side of the road and the soldiers had arrested a Palestinian, who was apparently trying to pass through the fence. On our way to Zanuta on Route 60, we stopped to photograph a road blocked by the army between Zanuta and Dahariya.

While we were standing there, we met Fais, the head of the Zanota Council, who said that this road, which is about three kilometres long, has existed for about 100 years and now, to get to Dahariya, they have to go 22 kilometres. Just a few stones and a D-9, and how this has changed their lives.

Fais said that the settlers had taken over the entire hill.  Palestinians sowed in the wadis but now the settlers move their herds onto the sown plots. Not everyone is able to withstand the pressures and some of them leave their lands. We continued to Fares to give him the oxygen ventilator for Abu Safi. A man with a captivating smile. I don't understand how he can still smile. We were honoured with wonderful sabras that grow in his yard and I thought to whom the "sabra” symbol is more appropriate, to us or the Palestinians.  We unloaded the toys from the car that Snait had sent. Among the toys were some boats and I thought to myself that these children had never seen boats, what would they do with them? It turns out that the boats were the things that made them the happiest and they immediately filled a tub with water to sail the boats. Fares said that the settler, Yisrael Kaplan, from the Mikneh-Yehuda farm, continues to throw the carcasses of his sheep, at the entrance to Zanuta. Who can I contact? This can cause a very serious health problem.

On the way back, Palestinians had started the ploughing and the sight was so beautiful that I couldn't resist and took  a picture.
