RAMALLAH, Friday, April 28, 2023 (WAFA) – Five Palestinians were shot and injured today after being attacked by Israeli forces for attempting to fend off an Israeli settlers’ attack against Palestinian-owned lands in the village of al- Mughayyir to the northeast of Ramallah, according to local sources.
Sources said settlers, backed by Israeli forces, stormed the village from the eastern entrance, attacked residents’ lands, and destroyed fully-grown olive trees.
Forces attacked residents for attempting to fend off the settlers’ attack, firing rubber-coated metal rounds and tear gas canisters toward them, shooting and injuring at least five people. The injured were treated at the scene.
Tens of others suffered from tear gas suffocation.
