Zionist occupation soldiers have assaulted Monday evening Tamer al-Atrash, an anti-settlements activist, in Al-Khalil city (Hebron), southern West Bank, Palestinian Information Center reported.

The activist confirmed that six Zionist troops had stopped him in Jebel al-Rahma area of Al-Khalil and beat him brutally, leaving marks on his body.

“After I got out of the car, the soldiers beat me brutally,” Atrash explained, affirming that he knew the soldiers' identities where he had previously filmed their attack on Palestinian citizens in Tel Rumeida.

He added that this attack came as revenge against “Youth Against Settlements Activists” and their work in exposing the Zionist soldiers' practices and daily attacks against the Palestinians in the Tel Rumeida neighborhood and Shuhada Street of Al-Khalil.
