A Jewish settler driving at high speed on Wednesday evening hit a herd of sheep killing some of them after he tried to run over their owner on a road in a West Bank area south of al-Khalil.
A local source told the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) that a shepherd called Ismail ad-Daghamin was crossing Road 60 near Ghuwein hamlet and as-Samu village in al-Khalil with his cattle when a settler accelerated his car towards him in an attempt to kill him.
Seven sheep died immediately in the vehicular attack while the shepherd miraculously survived.
