Ramallah:
A group of Israelis attacked a Palestinian woman in the village of
Lebnan Al Sharq on Wednesday afternoon, tearing off her clothes in
front of her husband and son who retaliated by attacking the
colonists, injuring one, a media report said.
The Israeli military allowed the
gang to beat the Palestinian husband Khaled Sameeh Daraghmah and
his son Sameeh before they arrested the two men and removed them
from the area, reported Gulf News.
Ghassan Doghlous, the Palestinian official in charge of colonial
activities in northern areas of the West Bank told Gulf News that
the Israeli colonists targeted Khaled’s house which is located at
the village’s side and not surrounded by neighbours.
“The colonists targeted the woman
and tore her clothes off, knowing that such an action would badly
humiliate the husband and the son,” he said. “The man and his son
could not stand the attack and responded.”
One colonist injured by the man and his son was admitted to
hospital for treatment.
“The Israeli military only got involved when the colonists were
attacked,” he said.
Doghlous said that with the proposed
evacuation of the Israeli colony of Migron, attacks by Israeli
colonists are expected to rise and become more serious.
“The Palestinian targeted cities, villages and communities have
been organised in a way which provides possible safety,” he said.
“Guard groups have been organised day and night, and during these
Palestinian youths will provide dog watches on shifts.”
Doghlous stressed that Israeli colonists attempt to show they
exist in number and in strength. “The Israeli colonists
demonstrate that they form an independent army with a deterrent
strength that can not be ignored,” he said.
