Dozens of sheep were poisoned and nine died, along with a sheepdog, in an attack on grazing land near the Alon Road in the Benjamin region on Tuesday. According to local residents, a cell of terrorists from the village of al-Mughayyir infiltrated the grazing areas and poured a toxic substance into a water trough used by the flocks. The sheep drank from the trough in the afternoon, and shortly thereafter began exhibiting severe poisoning symptoms. Residents rushed to the scene with veterinary medicine in an attempt to save the animals. More than 40 sheep were injured and are being treated. Security forces were called and have launched searches in the area to find the suspects. Residents claim this is the 13th such poisoning incident in the area over the past year, attributing them to a cell operating from al-Mughayyir. While previous incidents resulted in the deaths of only a few sheep, this attack has affected an unusually large number of animals.
