Four foreign nationals were hospitalized after reportedly being attacked by a group of extremist settlers on Saturday night, according to government officials and the alleged victims of the attack.

The foreign nationals, three of whom were Italian and the fourth a Canadian national, were treated at a hospital in Jericho on Sunday, one of the apparent victims told Agence France-Presse.

The four wounded foreign nationals were “activists,” according to Palestinian Authority-run WAFA.
