An Israel Defense Forces’ lieutenant in the Paratroopers’ reconnaissance battalion was assaulted by a group of Palestinian women on Friday who were trying to stop him from arresting a Palestinian 14-year-old who was throwing rocks during a riot in the Samaria village of Qadum.

The assault was filmed and disseminated on social media. The footage shows the officer trying to shake off the women, but not reacting violently.
