A horde of extremist Jewish settlers set up on Saturday an outpost in the northern Jordan Valley while Israeli soldiers savagely assaulted a Palestinian young man in the northeast of al-Khalil because of a picture on his shirt.
Local official Moataz Bisharat said that settlers placed a mobile home and set up a cowshed and a five-kilometer water pipe on a swath of land in Umm Qaba area in the northern Jordan Valley.
Meanwhile the Israeli occupation forces severely beat a young man identified as Omar Jaradat and injured him at the main entrance of Sa’ir town northeast of al-Khalil.
Eyewitnesses said that soldiers assaulted the young man at the pretext that he was wearing a shirt with a gun pattern on it.
In a separate incident violent clashes broke out on Saturday evening between local youths and Israeli forces in the villages of Nabi Saleh and Abboud in northern Ramallah.
