A Palestinian man has died after being stabbed in a brawl with Israeli settlers near the Palestinian village of Iskaka, close to Ariel, according to the Palestinian Authority Health Ministry.
A group of Israeli settlers reported being attacked in the area by a large group of around 40 Palestinians with stones and clubs between the settlements of Nofei Nehemiah and Ariel, according to the Samaria Regional Council.
“An Arab was injured in the brawl and evacuated [for medical treatment]. The rioters stole bags and equipment from the travelers,” the Rescuers Without Borders emergency service said.
There was no immediate comment from Israel Police’s West Bank division.
The deceased Palestinian was identified by Palestinian health officials as Ali Hassan Harb.
