An elderly Palestinian man was injured on Wednesday in an Israeli settler attack near Burqa village, northwest of Nablus city.

Anti-settlement activist Ghassan Daghlas said that a group of Israeli settlers brutally assaulted Mufid Hejji, 70, while he was herding his sheep on his farmland near the evacuated settlement of Homesh, which had been established on Palestinian-owned lands in Burqa.

Hejji, who suffered some head injuries, was taken to Rafidia Hospital in Nablus for treatment, Daghlas added.
