Israeli settlers attack Palestinian home in Hebron after settler injures owner

Settler assaults and injures Palestinian farmer (64) working his land; settlers later attack his home twice

On Friday morning, 17 June 2022, while ‘Abd al-Karim al-Ja’bari (64), a father of 12, was working his land in the neighborhood of al-Makhul in Hebron, a masked settler appeared behind him, hit him on the head with a stick and sprayed pepper spray in his face. Al-Ja’bari tried to defend himself and hit the settler on the hand with a stick, causing the latter to drop the pepper spray canister. At that point, the settler picked up a rock and threw it at al-Ja’bari, hitting him in the arm. He also hit him on the head again with the stick. Al-Ja’bari fled with his head bleeding. The settler chased him and hit him on the head a third time. When al-Ja’bari approached the gate of the Kiryat Arba settlement, he called out to a soldier standing there, who started running towards him. Only then did the settler flee. Meanwhile, police officers arrived at the scene and suggested al-Ja’bari file a complaint at the police station. Two Israeli ambulances also arrived, as well as a Red Crescent ambulance that took al-Ja’bari to hospital in Hebron, where his head was stitched and his arm put in a cast. He was discharged the following day.

On the evening al-Ja’bari was admitted to hospital, about 10 settlers went to his home, vandalized one of the family’s cars and pelted the house with stones for several minutes. Palestinians tried to fend them off by throwing stones, until police and soldiers arrived and the settlers fled. The next day, after al-Ja’bari returned home, settlers attacked the house again.
