Eight Palestinian schoolgirls wounded in zionist settlers’ attack on school bus

Eight Palestinian school pupils were injured when Jewish settlers attacked their school buses on their return from a trip near Nablus city on Sunday evening.

Ghassan Daghlas, an activist monitoring settlement activity north of the West Bank, said that a group of settlers ambushed two school buses near Yitzhar crossing, south of Nablus.

He said that the settlers threw rocks at the buses injuring eight of the girls, explaining that some of them were directly hit with the stones while others were injured by the flying glass.

He said that the other girls were panicked and were all taken to nearby Hawara town for treatment.

Daghlas said that the busses, returning on a trip from Ramallah, were badly damaged in the attack.
