A Palestinian was wounded by live ammunition and two others were beaten, in addition to a foreign journalist, on Friday, as a result of an attack by settlers on farmers and olive pickers in the village of Abu Falah, east of Ramallah, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its crews dealt with two injuries resulting from the beating, one of whom was a woman (63 years old) and a young man (40 years old), during the settlers' attack on olive pickers, and they were transported to the hospital.
A Palestinian was also wounded by live ammunition in the thigh, in addition to a foreign journalist who was beaten by the settlers.
Settlers in large groups attacked olive pickers in the eastern area of the village and burned olive trees, while occupation forces fired live ammunition and toxic gas canisters at the Palestinians during the attack to force them to leave their land.
