Hebrew TV channel Seven on Sunday reported that Israeli settlers have recently created field teams to chase and take photos of Palestinian protesters during clashes with the Israeli occupation forces.

According to the channel’s website, a settler group named “Jewish Authority Movement in Judea and Samaria (West Bank)” has announced the formation of many field groups in different areas of the West Bank.

The aim of this move is to assist the Israeli occupation forces in chasing the Palestinian protesters with the help of photos and recordings prepared by the settlers.

The website added that the settler group, which is equipped with advanced cameras and whose source of funding remained unknown, is currently training its members on the mechanisms of documenting the clashes and providing the Israeli army with the needed information.

In addition to this, the settler group has appointed a legal team to follow up the cases of the Palestinian prisoners who are arrested for participating in clashes and ensure that they are brought to trial.

The Hebrew channel said that this move comes in response to some Israeli left-wing organizations which document the Israeli violations against the Palestinians, such as B’Tselem, Yesh Din and Machsom Watch.
