Palestinian farmers harvesting crops have been sent into a fenced field in the Jordan Valley clearly marked with signs in Hebrew, English and Arabic warning of mines and prohibiting entry. A number of critical injuries and deaths have occurred in the past to trespassers who have entered minefields.
Say the Israelis, “There are irresponsible individuals encouraging the Arabs living in the area to trespass on firing zones, in this specific case an active minefield clearly surrounded by signs. If, God forbid, a tragedy occurs, those who encourage the incursions will point the finger of blame at the State of Israel, even though they themselves are the ones actually responsible for this insanity.”
Gives new meaning to the term ‘crop duster’.
