On 31 January 2019, the Israeli Civil Administration dug up the road
linking the community of She’b al-Batem with the rest of the communities
in Masafer Yatta (Greater Yatta) in the South Hebron Hills. Two days
later, the local residents repaired the road. Yesterday (Monday, 11
February 2019), at around 8:00
A.M., Civil Administration personnel returned with a Border Police and
military escort. They brought a bulldozer and a tractor and re-dug a
deep trench across the road
