A representative of the invaders, who called himself a police colonel, began to dictate his orders to the people. In case of disobedience, he threatened to use force, up to and including shooting at the settlement with artillery. He demanded that all the trucks be given back and announced a curfew. The representative of the invaders forbade the locals to gather, take off the military equipment, and come close to the police station.
