Israeli extremists attacked a Palestinian young man from Jerusalem, identified as Majdi Mahmoud Abu Ghazala, 21, with sticks and sharp metal tools during his work in Jaffa Street in West Jerusalem, in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Abu Ghazala said that the attack took place at 4 am outside the restaurant where works at Jaffa Street. A group of Israeli extremists pointed at him from somewhere nearby but he didn’t pay attention and continued to do his job.

The settlers then closed in on him and surrounded him holding knives, metal instruments, sticks and stones. 7 men wearing the Kippa on their heads and a woman made the group.

He also added that they surrounded him in a circle and said the words, “Kill him…Kill him” and started beating him up with the sticks. But miraculously he could escape and ran to the restaurant. One of the people in charge called the police because he’d seen the incident. Three of them stayed outside, meters away from the restaurant.

He also said that the police came to the place and ran a quick investigation with me. I pointed to the culprits who were standing nearby, and the police checked their ID cards and searched one of them then just sent them away.

Abu Ghazala added, “We endure provocations from Israeli extremists on a daily basis. They call us names and swear at us using bad language and racist remarks. The failure to take restraining measures against them helps them do this.”‘

It should be pointed out that the number of attacks on Jerusalemites during their work or while passing by in the streets of West Jerusalem is increasing during the last couple of years.

Human Rights centers have recorded many incidents where Jerusalemites where attacked; including ones who actually died, like Hussam Ruweidi, ones who were severely injured and could not get out of bed for a while, and others who suffered from broken bones and various wounds. The attacks were registered against unknown for lack of evidence.
