Israeli settlers have attacked a school in the Muarrajat area, northwest of Jericho, Al Jazeera reports citing Wafa.

Students and teachers were assaulted by the settlers during the attack on the Arab al-Kaabneh Primary School, injuring several people before they were detained.

According to the report, Palestine Red Crescent Society said its workers attended to three wounded people, who were taken to a hospital.

The Palestinian Education Ministry denounced the attack, calling it a “recurring violation that reveals the ugly face of the Israeli occupation and its disregard for children’s rights”.
