IDF officer attacked by settlers near Hebron

Security forces are searching the area around the West Bank settlement of Havat Gal near Hebron for a group of settler youths who attacked an IDF officer.

Police received a report from the IDF about a number of settlers who attacked an officer from COGAT, the Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories, who had come to inspect illegal construction at the site.

Police officers arrived at the scene of the incident and met the coordination and liaison officer, who notified them that several youths shoved him and fled.
