The incident took place in Burin village, near Nablus city, where settlers assault Palestinian villagers, Ghasan Daghlas, a Palestinian Authority official who monitors settlement activities in the northern West Bank, said.

Four foreign activists who came to support Palestinian villagers in harvesting their crops and to protect them from settlers' attacks were among the injured, Daghlas noted.

In the meantime, local media reported that Jewish settlers attacked farmers in Jabaa town in the Beit-Lahim in the southern West Bank.
