West Bank: Israeli armed settlers assaulted an elderly Palestinian and threatened to kill him

Today, Wednesday, armed settlers assaulted an elderly Palestinian citizen in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron.


Local sources said that a group of settlers wearing the uniform of the Israeli occupation forces assaulted, with rifle butts, the citizen Gabriel Musa Noman in the “Aqawawis” area of Masafer Yatta, which led to him sustaining bruises. They also forced him at gunpoint to stay in the house and not go out with his sheep to the pastures which he owns, and threatened to kill him unless he complied with that.


In the same context, a group of settlers, under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces, chased the shepherds in the “Shaab al-Batm” area and prevented them from reaching pastures, while those forces allowed the colonists to enter their flocks of sheep into the citizens’ fields and destroy them.
