Armed Zionist settlers attack Susiya village

OCCUPIED PALESTINE, Jan. 08 (YPA) – Armed Zionist settlers on Friday evening attacked with gunfire the village of Susiya, to the southwest of Hebron in the occupied West Bank, and terrified its residents, Palestinian media reported.

Palestine Today stated that a group of armed Israeli settlers from a nearby illegal Israeli settlement attacked the village, opened fire at homes and shouted profanities at local Palestinian residents.

The village is part of Masafer Yatta, a collection of about 19 Bedouin hamlets that have been a frequent target by the Israeli military and settlers, who seek to empty the area of its indigenous Palestinian population in favor of the colonial settlement enterprise.
