The Israeli General Security Service (Shabak) announced on Monday that it had filed indictments against three settlers in the West Bank who carried out attacks against Palestinians and their property during the month of August in the Awarta area, southeast of Nablus.

According to the Shin Bet, they attacked the Palestinians by throwing stones and other means, obstructed their investigation, and endangered Israeli soldiers while trying to escape.

Meanwhile, the Israeli Army Radio reported that Defense Minister Yoav Galant signed an administrative detention warrant against another settler who attacked Palestinians in the village of Jit, near Qalqilya.
