A group of Israeli settlers assaulted a young Palestinian child this evening near the Hebron Gate in the Old City of occupied Jerusalem, according to local sources. Settlers launched a brutal attack on Mustafa Musa Abu Khalaf, a young Palestinian child from Jerusalem, near the Hebron Gate, the sources said. The assault left him moderately injured, prompting his immediate transfer to Al-Maqasid Hospital in the city for medical treatment. Mustafa's father, Musa Abu Khalaf, expressed his distress over the incident, saying his son sustained a fractured arm as a result of being mercilessly beaten by the settlers. Palestinian authorities have been demanding international intervention to curb settler violence and to put an end to the ongoing harassment and assaults faced by Palestinians by Israeli occupation forces and settlers in the occupied territories.
