Israeli settlers on Tuesday evening attacked three Palestinian shepherds in Nablus’s northwestern town of Berkaa in the northern West Bank.

Speaking with PIC Palestinian young man Ahmad Ragheb Salah said he was attacked along with his brother and cousin by Israeli settlers while they were grazing their sheep in Berkaa’s western ranches.

The settler horde targeted Salah his brother and cousin with gunfire forcing them to flee the scene for fear of being killed in the attack.

The settlers stole the sheep and a bag containing the identity documents of Salah’s brother.

Over recent months settler attacks against Palestinian shepherds have been on the rise in Berkaa and the nearby villages.
