A Jewish settler driving east of Qalqilya hit a seven-year-old Palestinian girl on Sunday evening leaving her wounded.
The injured child was evacuated to Darwish Nazal Hospital in Qalqilya for treatment.
The incident came as tensions on the ground had been boiling up in the occupied West Bank with increasing attacks by Jewish settlers.
Many of the settlers’ attacks which included the use of live ammunition rock-throwing beating and smashing with pipes and other damaging objects have taken place under the protection or in coordination with the Israeli occupation army.
