Several Israeli settler attacks reported across occupied West Bank

A Palestinian man has been injured in an attack by Israeli settlers in southern Hebron, Wafa news agency is reporting.

Hudhayfah Ghaith was assaulted by a group of settlers while he was ploughing the family's land in Wadi al-A'war, his brother, Mudar, told Wafa. He reported that they unleashed dogs on him, and smashed the windows of his vehicle.

Ghaith was subsequently rushed to hospital for treatment.

According to Mudar, the settlers had set up a caravan about a month ago in order to establish a new illegal outpost.

Al Jazeera is also reporting settler attacks against Palestinians in the Masafar Yatta area, south of Hebron and in the al-Dhubat neighbourhood of Beit Furik, east of Nablus.

Local sources reported that settlers attacked Palestinian homes and property under Israeli military protection, which fired tear gas and sounds grenades.
