Palestinian eyewitnesses reported that a bunch of savage armed settlers tried to assault a Palestinian shepherd as he was grazing his sheep in the village of Einabus and when his 19-year-old brother showed up to defend him the settlers opened fire directly at the brother’s chest.
They said the young man was taken to Rafidia hospital in Nablus.

In a related context about 200 Jewish extremists tried on Sunday to break into the grand mosque in the city of Lod where they gathered around a rabbi who was exhorting them to storm the mosque.
Eyewitness said that the settlers fled away when a Palestinian citizen produced his video camera in order to capture the extremists and document their violations.
In the occupied city of Jerusalem the Israeli police closed on Monday Al-Quds road and kidnapped five Palestinian citizens including a young girl traveling on a car after receiving information about the presence of a suspicious vehicle boarded by Palestinians.
