gun-toting Israeli settlers chased down and intercepted a number
of female Palestinian students, Tuesdays, while they were on their

Ongoing settler attacks against Palestinians have significantly
increased following the <a

of an Israeli soldier and a female settler</a> on Monday.<br>
<br>
The rise in such attacks, including inside Israel, has sharply
increased following Saturday's incident in which Israeli police

Settlers, on Tuesday, attacked a number of Palestinian homes to
the south of Hebron with stones while, in a separate incident,
settlers sabotaged the content of a Palestinian stone-cutting
factory, according to local and security sources.<br>
<br>
In Hebron, settlers from the nearby illegal settlement of Hagai
broke into the Harayek area, to the south of the city, where they
pelted stones at Palestinian houses, yet no injuries were
reported.<br>
<br>
Earlier, in the predawn hours, illegal Israeli settlers stormed a
Palestinian-owned stone-cutting factory in the village of Hawwara,
to the south of Nablus, destroying some of its content and
machines.<br>

Israeli forces kidnapped, early Tuesday and Monday night, at least
ten Palestinians from across the West Bank and Jerusalem.<br>
<br>
Israeli forces raided ‘Askar refugee camp, to the east of Nablus,
where they broke into the house of Nur al-Din Abu Hashya,
suspected of stabbing an Israeli soldier in Tel Aviv on Monday.
Forces ransacked the house and took his father, Khaled, 55, along
with his three brothers, Walid, ‘Izz Ed-dine, and Mohammad.<br>
<br>
Nur al-Din Abu Hashya was reportedly taken into custody, according
to WAFA.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile. in Jerusalem, Israeli police further abducted one
Mohammad ‘Ubaid, who works as a paramedic, as well as 30-year-old
Ahmad al-‘Amuri, after breaking into and ransacking their houses.<br>
<br>
In Hebron, forces raided ‘Ein Sarah Street, where they arrested
Mohammad, the brother of Maher al-Hashlamon (the man who
reportedly killed a woman and injured three other people) after
breaking into and ransacking his family’s house.<br>
<br>
Maher al-Hashlamon is currently unconscious in the intensive care
unit at Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center in Jerusalem, after
being shot and critically wounded by soldiers stationed near the
scene.<br>
<br>
Ayman al-Shwaiki was also taken from the same neighborhood,
following a raid on his house.<br>
<br>
In the Jenin district, forces abducted two teenagers from the Abu
Bakir family; Liqa’, 18, and Rabi‘, 19, near Ya‘bad town, to the
southwest of the city.<br>
<br>
Following Monday's stabbing incident, Israeli troops forced
Palestinians in Huwwara town, to the south of Nablus, to shut down
their shops in anticipation of a demonstration organized by
Israeli settlers from Yitzhar junction to Za‘tarah military
checkpoint. <br>
<br>
Settlers <a href="http://www.imemc.org/article/69684"
target="_blank">vandalized Palestinian vehicles</a> parked near
the checkpoint.<br>
<br>
Finally, several hours later, dozens of settlers closed the main
entrance of Beit Fajjar, a town to the south of Bethlehem. </p>
