Al-Hayat Al-Jadida published an interview with a Palestinian village elder on Dec. 27, who falsely claimed that "on the neck of each cow, they [Israelis] hang a medallion with an eavesdropping and recording device on it, and sometimes cameras, in order to monitor every detail" in the village.
Rushd Morrar, a Khirbet Yanun village elder, further claimed that he spotted Israeli cows that are actually "recruited and trained" spies.
"These are recruited and trained cattle, as on the neck of each cow they hang a medallion with an eavesdropping and recording device on it, and sometimes cameras, in order to monitor every detail in Khirbet Yanun large and small," he said, adding that "settlers release herds of wild boars" to destroy Palestinian crops.
