On Wednesday, 1 March 2023, at around 1:00 P.M., two settlers threw stones at the home of the al-Wahidi family, which lies about 300 meters north of Route 60, on the eastern side of the village of Beit Ummar. The settlers smashed a window on the second floor of the home, as the family of seven, including three children, was having lunch. They then smashed a window on the bottom floor as well. The occupants, another family member and his wife and children, were out at the time. Several settlers then advanced towards the Musa family home, located about 50 meters away from the al-Wahidi home. They used stones to smash the side view mirror and four windows in 49-year-old Ayman Musa’s car, which was parked near the house, and then fled.
In a testimony he gave B’Tselem field researcher Nasser Nawaj’ah, Yusef al-Wahidi (72) said:
At around 1:00 P.M., while we were having lunch, the window suddenly shattered to pieces. The glass was scattered all over the room, including the food. We closed the shutter quickly to protect the children. The settlers also smashed a window in the apartment where my son lives with his wife and their five children, on the bottom floor. Luckily, they weren’t home.
