Israeli settlers stealing hundreds of sheep from their Palestinian owners in the village of Ras al-Ain Ujah [Original post] On Saturday night (March 8, 2025), hundreds of sheep were stolen from their Palestinian owners in the village of Ras al-Ain Ujah in the South of the Jordan Valley. The theft was carried out for hours by dozens of settlers, some of whom carried weapons, and was done in front of activists of "Looking The Occupation in The Eye", who captured the act of theft on camera and reported it immediately to the authorities, but to no avail. The settlers invaded in an operation coordinated between the heads of the outposts surrounding the villages of Ras al-Ain and Mua'rjat and apparently also with the police and army. One local resident, the owner of one of the herds, after being beaten by the invaders with clubs was arrested by the police. The official reason for his arrest: sheep theft. In addition, another Palestinian was wounded in the hand by a shrapnel. The incident began at 9:00 p.m, when, according to the Palestinian testimony, Zohar Sabah, one of the owners of the outposts, went out at this unusual time with his herd and approached the homes of the community's residents, and in the process his herd was close to the Palestinians' flock, a well-known move that serves as the basis for a false claim that sheep heads were stolen from the settler. Indeed, within minutes, 15 vehicles and dozens of settlers arrived in the area, some armed with weapons, some with clubs. It is not unnecessary to point out that in a previous case that occurred last year, the same tactic was used by the settlers, and only thanks to a documentation made by an activist of "Looking The Occupation in The Eye" the court rejected the false claim of theft and released the Palestinian shepherd who was arrested on its basis. After midnight, a policeman who identified himself as Ya'akov called, and told the activists to come and pick up the stolen sheep. He suggested that they come near Mua'rajat, not far from Zohar Sabah's outpost. Another policewoman named Sarit - who identified herself as the deputy commander of the Binyamin police - also claimed that the sheep were waiting for their owner to come pick them up near the outpost. "Looking" activists drove to the meeting point and after waiting for a while Zohar Sabah, another settler, arrived with 22 sheep. Police officer Jacob Shahada said that they did "above and beyond" and that Zohar Sabah only took back the sheep that was stolen from him. In the morning it became clear that more than a thousand sheep were stolen from the community and goats were murdered. Several herds that were stolen were observed being led to the area of the hill west of the community in the area of Kochav Hashar.
