| [IsraelTimes] After arresting Oscar-winning activist Hamdan Ballal during a reported settler attack on Susya, the military says the violence began “after a number of terrorists threw rocks toward Israeli citizens and struck their cars” near the southern West Bank village. “Afterwards, a violent confrontation developed that included mutual stone-throwing between Palestinians and Israelis,” the Israel Defense Forces says in a statement. According to the IDF, when troops arrived at the scene “to disperse the conflict, a number of terrorists began throwing stones toward the security forces.” Soldiers then arrested three Palestinians, inclufing Ballal, on suspicion of throwing stones at soldiers, as well as an Israeli suspected of taking part in the violence. The statement adds that an Israeli citizen who was wounded has been taken for medical treatment, while denying any of the Palestinians were arrested in an ambulance. |
