Israeli forces conducting a training drill near and inside villages in the Masafer Yatta area, West Bank, February 3, 2021. The military activity caused damages to infrastructure, agricultural land and residential structures, and took place in an area Israel designates as a firing zone despite it being populated by numerous communities, which it has been trying to expel for over 20 years. This was the first drill in the area since 2013, and the first one of such proportions since the firing zone was declared. Residents say it is intended to pressure the Israeli High Court to sanction the expulsion of the communities from their land.
