An elderly Palestinian was injured and bruised after Israeli colonial settlers attacked him on Friday while working in his land east of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank.

Eyewitnesses reported that Abd al-Karim al-Jabari, 64 years old, was wounded as Isreali settlers attacked him while he was in his land adjacent to the “Kiryat Arba” settlement, which is built on Palestinian lands east of Hebron.

local sources reported that he was transferred to a local hospital to receive treatment.

Israeli settlers escalate their attacks against the Palestinians in Jerusalem and the West Bank on an almost daily basis, attacking the Palestinian cars, lands and properties.
