Another Palestinian man in his 70s was seriously injured in the same attack. The incident occurred after Israeli settlers entered the village without authorization and were pelted with rocks.

    Former Chief of Staff to Pedro Sánchez Requests Return of Cloned Mobile Phone

    Juan Manuel Serrano, former president of Correos and chief of staff to Pedro Sánchez in the PSOE, has requested the return of his mobile phone after it was cloned twice as part of the investigation into the 'Leire Díaz' case. Serrano's defense argues that the device is no longer necessary for the investigation, and they question the validity of the first cloning, which was not done in their presence. The judge has ordered a new cloning in Serrano's presence and will use only the second clone as evidence.
