The Palestinian Red Crescent Society claimed Saturday that two Palestinians were wounded in a settler attack near the central West Bank town of al-Mughayyir, and that three more — a young man who was seriously injured as well as two minors — were hit by IDF gunfire in the northern West Bank’s Beit Furik following an earlier clash with settlers.

The IDF did not immediately respond to requests for comment on either incident.

According to the Red Crescent, two young men were rushed to the hospital from al-Mughayyir on Saturday afternoon after allegedly being shot by settlers who stormed the small compound of Abu Hamam, on the outskirts of the Ramallah-area town.

Speaking to the Hamas-affiliated Quds News Network, a young woman from Abu Hamam claimed a settler named Moshe punched her in the face, knocked her to the ground and kicked her as her small daughter was by her side.

“They were beating us and shooting us,” she said. “I hid my father behind me. I said, let them beat me and not him.”

In separate footage she filmed from the compound, the same woman said the settlers robbed homes there. “They left nothing,” she said. “But thank God, we’re okay.”
