The attacks took place while large groups of fanatic illegal Israeli colonizers living on stolen Palestinian lands and property held a procession led by the fanatic member of Knesset Itamar Been Gvir, calling for expelling the Palestinians.
During the procession, the soldiers assaulted many Palestinians and abducted a child, Akram Abu Najma, the Wadi Hilweh Information Center In Silwan (Silwanic) said.
