In the West Bank, Israeli settlers slashed tires and sprayed racist graffiti on Palestinian-owned structures in Awarta near Nablus. In Hebron, a 10-year-old Palestinian boy was assaulted by Israeli settlers before he was taken to a hospital.  Israeli soldiers were injured when a Palestinian man rammed his car into the soldiers. The Palestinian man and his father were later detained by Israeli forces in Hizma. Israeli authorities closed the Hizma checkpoint after the incident. (WAFA 7/6; HA, WAFA, WAFA, WAFA 7/7; HA 7/9)
