West Bank, ALRAY - An Israeli colonial settler rammed into a Palestinian store in Hebron in the central occupied West Bank on Sunday, injuring a young man with a disability and a girl.

Local official Yasser Abu Markhiya said that an Israeli colonial settler driving at high speed passed through an Israeli military checkpoint in central Hebron before ramming into a store owned by Hamdi Idais, 21.

The young man, who uses an electric wheelchair, and a girl, who was in the store at the time of the attack, sustained head injuries and were rushed to hospital for treatment.

Israeli colonial settlers have recently stepped up their violent attacks against Palestinian citizens and their property in the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem, under the protection of the Israeli occupation army.
