AL-KHALIL, (PIC)-- Armed Jewish settlers last night attacked Palestinian homes in the old city of Al-Khalil, which led to the injury of one citizen and caused material damage in some houses.

Eyewitness told the Palestinian information center (PIC) that dozens of armed Jewish savages brutally attacked a Palestinian young man called Mohamed Al-Rajbi who sustained different bruises all over his body and was transferred to hospital.

They added that settlers also attacked three homes belonging to Assalaymeh family and another house owned by Fakhouri family and smashed their windows after they failed to break into them.

In a separate incident, Israeli troops and settlers physically attacked last night a number of Palestinian natives on Al-Wad street in the old city of occupied Jerusalem which triggered scuffles between the two sides.

Eyewitnesses said that some Israeli soldiers intercepted a Palestinian citizen and embarked on beating him with no reason which prompted other Palestinians in the scene to help him before a group of Jewish setters and border guards joined the fight and attacked all Palestinians randomly.

Consequently, Five Palestinians were badly injured in this assault, according to the eyewitnesses.

For its part, Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper said that Israeli soldiers kidnapped three Palestinian citizens at dawn Sunday during raids on homes in the West Bank, claiming they were wanted.
