Settlers Assault Two Children South of Hebron

SadaNews - A group of armed settlers assaulted two brothers today, Wednesday, in the area of Masafer Yatta south of Hebron.

Activist Osama Makhamra reported that a group of armed settlers attacked shepherds in the Fath Sidra area of Masafer Yatta, physically assaulting the two brothers Mahmoud and Mohamed Farid Hamamdeh (aged 13 and 11), before attempting to steal their sheep.

Recently, the Israeli occupation's assaults on Palestinians and their properties have significantly increased. These assaults coincide with an escalation in the occupation's campaigns to raid Palestinian cities and villages, and the daily arrest of citizens.
