Palestinian woman films masked men attacking W. Bank farmers
The Israeli human rights group B'Tselem released a video on Friday which it said showed the start of an assault on Palestinian farmers by masked, stick-wielding Israeli settlers.
The footage shows four people with faces swathed in scarves and holding sticks, approaching the farmers near Susya settlement outside Hebron in the West Bank. One strikes a blow before the camera is dropped.
B'Tselem said the woman who was filming ran for help.
Among those hurt in the incident was a 58-year-old woman, the group said. B'Tselem has provided about 100 cameras to Palestinians over the past year in a project called "Shooting Back," which attempts to document rights abuses in the West Bank.
The Israel Police were investigating the reports of an incident near Susya, but police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said no arrests had been made.
