A Palestinian man was struck in the head this evening by settlers while in Khirbet a-Dab’a in the South Hebron Hills region of the West Bank, an eyewitness tells The Times of Israel.
He was evacuated to a hospital with a head injury.
According to the eyewitness, who speaks on condition of anonymity, around 7 p.m., around 10 masked settlers arrived at the scene and attacked Palestinians. It is unclear whether the Palestinian was injured by stones or by clubs carried by the settlers.
In addition, according to the same eyewitness, earlier today, around 10 masked settlers also arrived near the village of a-Tuwani in the South Hebron Hills and attempted to attack Palestinians.
In footage obtained by The Times of Israel, a masked individual can be seen throwing stones while an IDF soldier beside him fires into the air. According to the witness, several soldiers were present during the incident, and two Palestinians were injured by stones and evacuated to a hospital for medical treatment.
The IDF has not yet issued a response.
בינתיים בדרום הר חברון רעולי פנים מיידים אבנים לעבר א-תוואני. שני פלסטינים נפצעו. מאוחר יותר הגיעה קבוצה דומה לחילת א-דבע ופלסטיני נפצע קשה בראשו, לא ברור אם מאבן או מאלה. כאן בתיעוד מא-תוואני חיילים ליד רעולי הפנים יורים באוויר ואז מרחיקים אותם מהמקום. מצה"ל טרם נמסרה תגובה. pic.twitter.com/AwI7ZDEzyy
