Saffa July 22 Fire Damage Assessment

After nearly 40 acres of farmland in the Saffa area of Beit Ommar was set fire to by settlers on July 13, 2009, this video details the damage done to the fruit trees and grape vines in the land. After all was said and done, over 300 trees and vines were lost in the fire, comprising the majority of the crop which farmers pick.
