| [IsraelTimes] Police say they arrested four foreign activists for attacking a settler in the West Bank, and two of them will be deported. A police statement says the four attacked a shepherd who was in an approved grazing area near the Palestinian village of al-Mughayyir. The four were detained for assault, creating a public disturbance and violating a military order barring them from the area. Two of the activists were released and banned from the West Bank for a period of 15 days and the other two will be deported after a hearing, the police say. Al-Mughayyir has been the scene of frequent clashes between settlers and Palestinians, with foreign activists often trying to document settler attacks. |
