3 Palestinian villages have emptied out; residents blame Israeli attacks
By Julia Frankel, The Associated Press, Al-Qabun, West Bank

Transcribed from the clipping
“The Palestinian hamlet of al-Qabun in the central occupied West Bank was silent this week… While Bedouin are traditionally nomadic, the recent departures are not voluntary seasonal migrations, residents and researchers said.
Instead of moving to nearby hamlets before returning, Bedouin are fleeing the open areas of the West Bank for populous towns under Palestinian Authority administrative control…”
Context added by this archive
The same dispatch. One headline says villages continue to empty; this one says three of them have emptied and who the residents blame. It also keeps the paragraph that rules out the explanation the settlers’ spokeswoman gives.

The clipping belongs to the newspaper that printed it, or to the news agency that supplied the copy. It is reproduced here for research, criticism and commentary. A city here is where the newspaper was published, not where the story came from, and on most records it was taken from the masthead.
