Red Crescent says settlers stoned its medics as they tried reaching West Bank village

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society says its medics were stoned by settlers while trying to reach Khirbet al-Fakhit, one of the hamlets that make up Masafer Yatta south of Hebron, following a settler attack there.

The organization does not immediately say if there are injuries in Fakhit, where Palestinian media reports that settlers assaulted people and set fire to property.

Footage published on social media shows settlers around a flaming structure, reportedly in Masafer Yatta.

Separately, the Red Crescent reports a 13-year-old boy was evacuated to the hospital from the central West Bank’s Qalandiya refugee camp a short while ago after being hit in the foot by live IDF gunfire.

The IDF does not immediately respond to a request for comment on the incidents in Qalandiya or near Hebron.
