Five laborers from Dheisheh Refugee Camp were working Faraj family land in Wadi Rahal. Three settlers, one masked with a rifle and two with clubs, chased two of them, throwing stones, and fired in the air. They tied the two workers' hands with zip ties and beat and kicked them, and more settlers joined in. Meanwhile, soldiers beat the other three laborers with rifles and fists. An officer stopped the assault after about 10 minutes. All five were treated at al-Hussein Hospital in Bethlehem.
