LONDON: A Palestinian woman and members of an NBC News team were injured after being attacked by masked Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank on Saturday, according to the US broadcaster.
NBC News said correspondent Matt Bradley and three colleagues were interviewing 51-year-old Aida Ahmed Abdullah and members of her family in the town of Jalud, near Nablus, when the attack took place.
Abdullah had told the network that settlers had forced her family from their home. As the group walked down a hill toward the property, a vehicle bearing Israeli license plates reversed toward them before at least four masked men got out.
According to NBC News, the men assaulted members of the group with sticks and threw stones at them before returning to the vehicle.
“They jumped out, beat us, then jumped back in the car,” Bradley told the network.
