Palestinian man beaten with iron rod in Israeli settler attack in occupied West Bank
A Palestinian man has been injured in an attack by Israeli settlers in the northern Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank, the Wafa news agency is reporting.
The attack took place in al-Farisiya in the Jordan Valley on Tuesday night, when a group of settlers attacked a Palestinian family, striking one of the sons with an iron rod and leaving him with bruising, Wafa reported.
Israeli settlers have repeatedly attacked Palestinians in al-Farisiya, including in an attack in August last year.
According to the Israeli human rights organisation B’Tselem, the Palestinian residents of al-Farisiya are shepherds and farmers who have lived in tents and shacks since their historical village was completely demolished by Israel in 2010.
