Monday 30-January-2017

A Jewish female settler suffered a trauma on Sunday when her vehicle came under stone-throwing attack on a road south of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank.

According to the Hebrew website 0404 Palestinian young men hurled volleys of stones at settlers’ cars as they were traveling near Umm Salamuna village.

One car was slightly damaged and its driver a female settler suffered from a severe panic attack the website claimed.

Earlier other intifada young men targeted cars belonging to settlers’ security guards in the Jerusalem district of Silwan with Molotov cocktails.

Since the start of the Jerusalem intifada (uprising) in early October 2015 Palestinian young men have launched hundreds of Molotov cocktail and stone-throwing attacks against Israeli soldiers vehicles checkpoints and watchtowers in retaliation to Israel’s violations in the occupied territories especially in Jerusalem.
