Eyewitnesses said that two Jewish settlers with firearms and wearing clothes of fanatic Jews tried to steal olive groves near Ein Adas area.
Jewish settlers had previously stolen olive harvests in the Yasuf and Masaha villages in Salfit while Palestinian farmers were blocked form reaping their yields.
Jewish settlers also assaulted Palestinian farmers and foreign solidarity activists in the Jordan Valley, locals reported, adding that the settlers insulted and threatened the farmers in an attempt to drive them away from their land.
Farmers appealed to human rights groups to swiftly pressure the Israeli occupation authority to curb the settlers' wild practices.
The victim’s family said he was staying in intensive care in the Hadasa Ain Karim Hospital.
They added that the victim Fareed Kamil Al-Toubasi was left in very difficult health condition after he received several violent blows to various parts of the body, including the head and chest. He was able to wake for a few moments and would again lose consciousness. No future effects of the injuries have been identified.
Toubasi’s brother, who was able to talk with him Saturday, said that after he finished his work Thursday at midnight, an extremist settler attacked him and began screaming: “This is an Arab…This is an Arab.” He then pushed him down to the ground when he tumbled down a stairs, and more than 30 Jewish settlers attacked him and dragged him to an empty square and beat, insulted, and threatened him.
The attackers deliberately left Toubasi near a waste container where he was found by a Jerusalem man and taken to the hospital.
