A family in the Al-Rakheem Valley, south of Hebron, has been under a severe siege for approximately ten days, according to homeowner Yousef Moussa Shenaran. He stated that settlers have surrounded their house, restricting the family's movement and pressuring them to leave the area. Shenaran described escalating hardship over recent days, including alleged assaults, property destruction, and attempted home invasions by settlers, which he believes are intended to force them out.
Shenaran recounted difficulties in accessing the home, noting he had to leave to take his son to a doctor after an assault affected his health. However, he was prevented from returning for over 24 hours, requiring coordination with the Israeli army for approval. His family, including children, remained inside the besieged house. He expressed confusion about the role of the Israeli military forces present at the scene, given the ongoing alleged harassment and restrictions.
The family consists of nine to ten individuals who are not receiving regular aid. A single attempt to deliver food supplies occurred about a week ago, but their current needs are not being met. Despite the intense pressure, Shenaran affirmed his family's determination to remain in their home, stating they have nowhere else to go and will not abandon their property despite the siege, threats, and alleged attacks.
