Two Israelis entered the village of Deir Ballut in Samaria this evening (Tuesday) and were attacked by dozens of Arabs. Security forces have dispatched a significant contingent to the scene. Apparently, a Palestinian Arab reported to Israeli authorities about the attack on the two Israelis and claimed that one of them was unconscious and he was trying to rescue them and hand them over to the security forces. After many minutes, the two Israelis were handed over to the military forces and it was reported that they were conscious and were receiving medical treatment on the spot. Although it was originally reported that the Israelis had accidentally entered Deir Ballut, authorities now believe that they knowingly entered the village and that the attack was precipitated by a business argument. The IDF stated, "Earlier this evening (Tuesday), the IDF rescued two Israeli civilians who entered Deir Ballut and were attacked, most likely in a criminal incident. One of the civilians received medical treatment at the scene. The incident is under review. The civilians were transferred to the Israel Police for further treatment." Magen David Adom (MDA) reported: "At 8:55 p.m., a report was received at MDA's 101 hotline in the Yarkon region about an injured person from a violent incident who was brought to the compound with MDA teams near the village of Deir Ballut. MDA medics and paramedics provided medical treatment and referred a 35-year-old man to Beilinson Hospital in light condition with a head injury."
