On Monday afternoon, 9 June 2025, about eight settlers arrived at the community of Nab’a al-Ghazal, in al-Farisiyah in the northern Jordan Valley, including Gilad Amusi and his father, Didi Amusi, from the outpost Havat Tene Yarok, which was established near the settlement of Rotem, about a kilometer southeast of the community, and began hammering in iron poles for a wire fence at distances ranging from two to 70 meters from the community’s residential compound.
The fence, which is about 168 meters long, makes it difficult for the community’s livestock, which at the time it was put up were in the summer pasture in the area of a-Jubiyah in al-Farisiyah, about four kilometers northeast of Nab’a al-Ghazal, to reach the pastureland located to its east and north. Construction of the fence went on for several weeks, during which the settlers came to the site several times. They worked on the fence and also entered the community’s residential compound, walked around near the homes and frightened the children.
The settlers finished putting up the fence in the first week of August 2025, leaving an opening about five meters wide, intended to enable settlers and Israeli forces to keep invading the community with vehicles and drive on the path between the homes.
The settlers spend time at a site known as the “pergola,” an outpost point established by settlers in May 2025 on a hill adjacent to the community from the east. They also invade the community’s area on foot and on an ATV, creating a menacing effect that deters Palestinians from passing through and accessing pastureland.
