Palestinians report settler attack on herders near Bethlehem
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA Palestinian official says dozens of settlers attacked a Palestinian community near Bethlehem, burning tents and attacking sheepherders, the third apparent attack in hours.
Ahmed Ghazal, the local Fatah party chief for the village of Kisan, tells the official Palestinian news agency Wafa that some 30 settlers were involved in the attack.
There are no details on whether the injured required hospitalization.
There is no comment from either the Israel Defense Forces or Israel Police.
Earlier, Palestinians reported settler attacks on the town of Yatma, south of Nablus, and Turmmus Ayya, near Ramallah, in what appear to be a rash of revenge actions following a deadly terror attack on Israeli motorists passing through a Palestinian town last week.
