A Palestinian citizen was injured on Wednesday morning when a horde of extremist settlers assaulted him in Huwara town south of Nablus.
Local official Ghassan Daghlas said that settlers attacked Nayef Lafi with pepper spray after he tried to prevent them from removing a Palestinian flag in Huwara town.
Daghlas added that a large number of Israeli soldiers stormed the town to provide protection for the settlers and secure their withdrawal after other local citizens intervened to fend them off.
