Settlers assault Palestinians near Ramallah village

NABLUS (Ma’an) – A group of extremist Israeli settlers on Thursday assaulted three young Palestinian men while they were picking plants south of al-Mughayyir village north of Ramallah.

Ghassan Daghlas, a Palestinian official who monitors settlement-related activities in the northern West Bank, told Ma’an that the assailants were settlers from Kokhav Hashahar.

The young Palestinian men, he said, sustained moderate to serious bruises and were evacuated to Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah.

The Apartheid Picnic marches on, and yet some knob-heads can't even do a decent job of distracting from Israeli human rights abuses any longer.

BDS.
