On Saturday, 28 March, shepherds from Tuwani and nearby villages responded to recent harassment by gathering peacefully with their families to graze sheep in Khoruba valley.  Four settlers, two with their faces covered, walked from Havat Ma'on into the flocks and among the shepherds and their children.  Palestinian shepherds sat down and refused to remove their sheep from the area.  Israeli soldiers, police, and border police arrived but did nothing to protect the rights of the Palestinian landowners.  There were no arrests and both settlers and Palestinians left after about three hours.
