Since the attack that left a woman with a head injury that cause intercranial hemorrhage after being bludgeoned with clubs, the army has been harassing farmers and often preventing them from accessing their lands by repeatedly declaring vast agricultural areas a closed military zone. By doing so, Israeli authorities are using their force to punish the victims of the attacks, while no arrests have been made in connection with the attack.
