HEBRON (Ma'an) -- Settlers attacked a group of farmers north of Hebron on Saturday, a local committee said.

Committee spokesman Muhammad Ayad Awad told Ma'an that Hamad al-Sulaibi, 78, was working his land with his nephews when 13 settlers started throwing stones at them in an area known locally as Wadi Abu al-Rish, located opposite the illegal settlement of Bat Ayin.

Settlers forced the farmers to leave the area, in the presence of Israeli forces, Awad said.
