Palestinian protesters argue with Israeli forces following a protest aginst settlements in the village of Nabi Samuel, northwest of city of Jerusalem. 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Youssef Karaja, coordinator of the popular committees in Ramallah. STORYLINE: Hundreds of Israeli settlers today en masse stormed the village of Nabi Samuel, northwest of occupied city of Jerusalem, according to WAFA correspondent. She said that hundreds of settlers, led by Israeli lawmaker Itamar Ben-Gvir and under military protection, barged their way into the village and Nabi Samuel Mosque, as the military intensified deployments and set up checkpoints in the village and on the roads leading to it. The military deployments came after the villagers called on Palestinians to join them in Friday prayers and intensify their presence in the village in order to confront the Jewish settlers and protect the residents from the repeated settlers’ attacks. Nabi Samwel, also written as an-Nabi Samwil, overlooks East Jerusalem on one side and Ramallah on the other. With approximately 300 people in no more than a dozen houses, the village is located in the “seam zone” — an area separated from the rest of the occupied West Bank by Israel’s apartheid wall, as reported by the online news website Electronic Intifada.
