On Saturday night, a herd of sheep was stolen from the Tzofnat farm near the settlement of Tapuah in Samaria, allegedly by Palestinians from the nearby village of Hawara. Volunteers and farm staff who tracked the stolen herd to the outskirts of Hawara were attacked with clubs and stones by dozens of Palestinians, and one volunteer's vehicle was rammed by a suspect wielding a knife. The farm accused the media and left-wing groups of biased coverage, while defending the volunteers' actions as self-defense. A single channel reported the incident; details are attributed solely to the farm's account.
