HEBRON, A Palestinian young man was injured by gunfire shot at him today by hardcore Israeli settler vandals outside the town of Bani Na’im, to the east of Hebron city in the occupied West Bank, according to Palestinian security sources.

Armed settlers opened gunfire at the young man while driving at a street outside the town of Bani Na’im and injured him in the back. Despite his injury, the man managed to continue his way to the neighboring village of Beit Einun, where citizens moved him to hospital for medical treatment.

Several roads across the occupied West Bank were shut down over the past few days by hardcore settler gangs who carried out several attacks on Palestinian drivers and passers-by, with Israeli occupation army turning a blind eye.

Settler violence against Palestinians and their property is routine in the occupied Palestinian Territories, and is rarely prosecuted by the occupation authorities.
