(IsraelNN.com) Residents of Kfar Maimon, represented by Attorneys Moshe ben David and Yishayahu ben Avraham, have petitioned to the High Court to instruct the police to remove the siege around the village. They claim that the siege itself is illegal.
Kfar Maimon is an agricultural village. The immense numbers of security forces who have set up camp on the fields around the village have caused tremendous damage to the fields. Cars, trucks, tents and people are trampling everything.
In addition, the farmers are not allowed to go out to their fields to work where they can. They are not allowed to water the plants, spray insecticides or even pick the ripe fruits.
The farmers turned both to governmental offices and to the army and police officers in the area. However, no answers or promises were given. Rather, they were told that “this is “an order from above” and nothing can be done."
