Palestinian woman wounded following Israeli settler attack

A Palestinian woman was wounded in an attack by Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank village of Susya, near Hebron.

According to a village resident, eight settlers with face coverings, along with a few teenagers, entered the village, forced their way into homes, and assaulted the woman with a club. The group also reportedly injured a man's arm.

Israeli police stated that the attackers were dispersed, but no arrests were made— a common occurrence in such incidents, where settlers often face little to no consequences for their actions and commonly work alongside Israeli security forces.

The Palestinian residents of Susya added that the settlers vandalised a security camera and a car. The police said an investigation has been launched.

Palestinians also reported that several days ago, settlers without face coverings attacked another village resident near his home before fleeing the scene.
