Dozens of Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian olive harvesters in a grove near the village of Abu Falah, close to Ramallah, in the West Bank. The settlers were armed with slingshots and a handgun. During the assault, Heidi Levine, a photographer for The Washington Post, was attacked and injured. She described the incident, stating, "They jumped on me. I saw at least 25, maybe 50 people at first, and I found myself on the ground with them kicking me for about ten minutes. I tried to hold onto my cameras and my bag." Levine, who was wearing a helmet and protective vest, said the attackers tore her bag, stole her cameras and passport, and ripped her phone from her neck. She recounted that Palestinians arrived and rescued her after the assault. "It's just absolute madness, and I didn't see anyone trying to stop it," she added.
