A Palestinian woman and child were injured on Saturday evening after they were attacked by Israeli settlers in the Old City of al-Khalil south of the West Bank.
The PIC reporter said that a group of settlers attacked a Palestinian family while they were walking on al-Shuhadaa street.
He added that the settlers stopped the family and started to beat them with rifle butts injuring Ali al-Natsha 14 in the head and Mazouza al-Natsha 57 in the shoulder and the neck.
The injured were transferred by a Red Crescent ambulance to a local hospital for treatment and their health condition was described as stable.
Palestinian families living on al-Shuhadaa street and Tal Rumeida in al-Khalil are attacked on almost a daily basis by the Israeli settlers of neighboring settlements built illegally on Palestinian lands.
