Palestinian man reportedly shot during settler attack on West Bank village

A young Palestinian man was shot during a settler attack on the West Bank village of Sinjil north of Ramallah, the Palestinian Authority’s official Wafa news site and Al Jazeera report.

The victim was hit in the foot and his injuries have been characterized as minor, Wafa says.

Settlers fired several rounds of live ammunition at members of the village’s civilian guard, Wafa says.

“This crime is part of an escalating spate of attacks by settlers who are supported by the occupation army,” the Sinjil Municipality says in a statement.
