Four Palestinian women and one child were injured on Friday evening when a horde of extremist Jewish settlers attacked them near Nablus City in the occupied West Bank.
According to the Hebrew media, settlers showered a car carrying four women and a two-year-old girl child with stones and injured them after they mistakenly entered an area near an illegal settlement outpost in the south of Nablus.
The child and women suffered different injuries in the settler attack and were transferred to a hospital after they fled the area on foot.
According to Israel’s Kan news agency, the five victims are residents of the Arab town of Rahat in southern Israel and were on their way to the Palestinian City of Nablus.
Nufah, one of the women who were attacked, told journalists that their navigation application had led them astray.
“We accidentally went into some place and then settlers started running after the car, throwing rocks,” she said. “After they broke all the windows they sprayed tear gas.”
She said one of the attackers put his gun to the infant’s head and ordered them to get out of the car before they escaped the area.
The incident occurred at Givat Ronen, a small hilltop outpost in the northern West Bank near the village of Burin
