"We were surprised, this is a quiet area, there are good neighborly relations here," Hossam, one of the residents in the neighborhood, said Monday morning. "We are turning into a second Abu Ghosh because of our great location that draws in Israelis on Saturdays who visit the restaurants. This is a quiet area and someone is trying to hurt the fabric of life here."
Osama, a taxi driver who lives in the neighborhood said, "I got up at 6 am and saw my tires have been punctured. I'm now stuck in the neighborhood and don't know what to do. This is the second time this happens. It's the easiest thing to do it here, this is very annoying."
