100 Zionist settlers attack Palestinian homes in Al-Khalil

AL-KHALIL, (PIC)-- Tens of Zionist settlers from Kiryat Arba settlement and Al-Rajabi building, which has been occupied by settlers for 20 months now, wreaked havoc in Palestinian citizens' homes and property in Al-Khalil on Saturday.

Local sources in Wadi Al-Hussein valley, where the Rajabi building is located, said that more than 100 settlers launched a series of systematic attacks against the citizens and their homes and prevented civilians from moving across the sole street linking the area to the Ibrahimi Mosque.

They said that the assaults damaged a number of houses, noting that the Israeli occupation forces stationed nearby did not interfere to stop the attacks that targeted 15 homes.

The locals said that three Palestinian boys were injured when they were assaulted by those settlers while they were carrying goods to a grocery store.

One of them said that he and his two younger brothers, 14 and 15 years old respectively, were beaten with stones, sticks and fists, and added that some of those supplies were damaged.
