When the flock of sheep returned to the farm without him, a massive search began, involving the Israeli police, military, air force, intelligence services and thousands of volunteers from the settler community.
What followed was a wave of shooting and arson attacks across 11 Palestinian villages in which a dozen homes and more than 100 cars were torched, thousands of animals were slaughtered, four people were shot dead and scores of others were seriously wounded.
But messages posted by Yered as well as Eitan Rabinovich - the founder of an organisation which advocates for not buying from or employing Palestinians in the West Bank - and others, stressed that Achimeir’s disappearance was the “true Pikuach Nefesh”, a Hebrew term which states that the preservation of human life overrides all religious law.
The first location on the list spread on WhatsApp by Yered, Rabinovich and others on Saturday morning - in the same message that called for “collective punishment of the murderous Arab population” - was Duma Junction, where the main road exits towards the town.
A few hours after the messages circulated, at one of the first houses past the junction, Murad Dawbsheh, a 52-year-old construction worker and father of three, was hand-pumping water up from his well when he heard a woman screaming, he said, followed by the sight of black smoke rising nearby.
At the home of Shehade Abu Rasheed, a 50-year-old farmer, a group of settlers came down his driveway and threw rocks at the family, hitting his wife in the face and knocking her over, they said, while another set fire to his cars.
