BETHLEHEM: This afternoon, a group of Israeli colonists attacked two schools in the village of Al-Jab’a, located southwest of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank, according to local sources.
Diab Mash’ala, the head of the Al-Jab’a village council, reported that the colonists hurled stones at both the Al-Jab’a Boys Elementary School and the Al-Tawafuk Mixed Secondary School.
The incident caused panic among students, prompting the teaching staff to escort those affected back to their homes safely.
Yesterday, Israeli forces briefly detained several teachers from both schools at a military checkpoint at the main entrance to the village. They were released after the school day began.
