A 15-year-old Palestinian boy was left wounded after being assaulted by Israeli settlers near the town of Tammun, southeast of Tubas in the northern West Bank, the WAFA news agency reports.

According to the Palestinian Red Crescent, the boy is being treated for moderate injuries.

Palestinian media outlets also report that a Palestinian car crashed and overturned as a result of stone-throwing by settlers on the road between Khirbet Abu Falah and al-Mughayyir in the Ramallah area. This was the second time in three days that a Palestinian vehicle has overturned after being attacked by stone-throwers.

No injuries were reported in today’s incident.

The IDF says that “a report was received of Israeli civilians throwing stones at Palestinian vehicles near al-Mughayyir. As a result, a Palestinian vehicle lost control. IDF and Border Police forces were dispatched to the area and dispersed those involved. The forces also remained in the area. A closed military zone was imposed in the area in order to prevent rioters from returning.”

On Thursday, five Palestinians were reportedly injured in a settler attack on the same road. Footage circulated at the time also showed settlers and Palestinians throwing stones at each other, and it is possible that the vehicle veered off the road during the clashes seen in the footage.

The IDF said at the time that “forces were dispatched following a report of friction between Israelis and Palestinians,” adding that an Israeli civilian who was injured was treated at the scene and that several Palestinians were evacuated for medical treatment.
