B'TselemI started walking up the steps and suddenly I saw a settler there, blocking my way. He looked twenty-something years old. He was tall, thin, had brownish skin, long hair with a braid, and an earring. He punched me hard in the face. I turned and called to a soldier who was standing next to us, and he ran over to move the settler away. Then about ten settlers, who had been standing next to the steps, surrounded me and beat and kicked me. Some of them had small pieces of iron and stones in their hands. They beat me from all directions, on various parts of my body. I tried to get away, and the soldier tried to separate us and force them away. He failed and called other soldiers. The settler who attacked me at the start took the chair the soldier had been sitting on and hit me with it in the left hand. One of the legs of the chair broke and hit me in the face, wounding me in the area above my nose. Then one of the settlers hit me, with a 20-30 centimeter long flat piece of iron, above my left hip.
