Mohammed Asasa had just buried his 80-year-old father Hussein in a graveyard near their village in the West Bank. However, settlers from a nearby settlement, Sa-Nur, forced him to dig up the body, claiming the burial site was too close to their settlement. The settlers, some of whom were armed, hacked away at the grave with heavy tools, prompting Mohammed to intervene and eventually dig up the body himself.
