An Israeli citizen was attacked by an Arab mob on Sunday after he entered the village of Turmus Ayya in the Binyamin region. According to the IDF Spokesperson, a crowd presumably gathered around him and lit his car on fire. Security forces worked to evacuate him.

Palestinian Arab civilians assisted the Jewish victim until security forces arrived several minutes later and rescued him in light condition.

“We emphasize that entry into area A is prohibited and dangerous for civilians,” the IDF stated.
