A horde of armed Jewish settlers on Saturday assaulted Palestinian shepherds in at-Tuwanah village near Yatta town south of al-Khalil in the occupied West Bank.
According to local sources settlers from the Hafat Ma’oun outpost hurled stones at some shepherds herding their cattle in at-Tuwanah village.
Such aggressive practices by Jewish settlers and soldiers in southern al-Khalil are aimed to force the local residents to leave their areas and expand Israeli settlements.
