Umm al-Kheir update New road of the settlement Carmel damages water drain system

Dear Friends and Supporters,

Two weeks after our our previous report (see: https://villagesgroup.wordpress.com/2009/03/19/destruction-of-palestinian-well-in-umm-al-kheir/

it is now become clear that although the well itself wasn’t destroyed by settlers bulldozers, it’s whole drainage basin was damage in a way that will probably make this well useless (see especially photo 4: the well is just below the new patrol road of  Carmel settlement).

is also clear that the creation the paving of this road, enables the settlers and the army to control and make sure that after more than 50 years, Umm al-Kheir residents stop using the lands in the valley below for grazing purpose.
