Masked Israeli settlers attack NBC News crew
Brinley Bruton – NBC News Aug 29, 2026
Masked Israeli settlers attacked and injured a Palestinian woman and members of an NBC News team reporting in the Israeli-occupied West Bank on Saturday.
Three members of an NBC team were interviewing Aida Ahmed Abdullah and her family in the Palestinian town of Jalud, near Nablus, when the attack occurred. Abdullah said they had been driven out of their home by Israeli settlers, and the team was walking down a hill toward the house.
A gray car with Israeli license plates then drove in reverse up the hill toward them, video of the incident shows.
A masked man in a blue tracksuit, holding a stick, was leaning out of the rear passenger window as the vehicle approached. When the car stopped, at least four men in dark clothes and with their faces covered leaped out, hitting Abdullah and the crew with sticks and throwing rocks at them.
“They jumped out, beat us, then jumped back in the car,” said NBC News international correspondent Matt Bradley, who was hit twice in the arm and later treated at a nearby clinic.
Abdullah, 51, who was on the ground after the attack, was taken for medical care by the Red Crescent. Her injuries were not life-threatening, according to an Israeli military and Israel Border Police statement. According to her husband, Mahmoud Toubasi, Abdullah’s condition had improved but she remained in the hospital Saturday night.
Two additional members of the NBC News team — a cameraman and producer — were also injured and were treated following the attack.
Producer Lawahez Jabari described how the car rushed up the hill before its occupants beat members of the team and damaged camera equipment and one of the crew’s vehicles.
“Suddenly a car came to us,” she said after receiving medical care. “The settlers had sticks. I saw a gun, but they didn’t use the gun.”
Camera operator Khaldoon Eid, who lives in the West Bank, said he was surprised the attack occurred in the middle of the village.
“We didn’t expect that — that they would come to attack,” he said. “We were in the middle of a Palestinian area next to Palestinian houses.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his spokesman Doron Spielman condemned the violence against Abdullah and the NBC News crew along with several other incidents across the area on Saturday.
Those incidents included dozens of masked Israeli settlers spraying pepper spray at Palestinian workers and throwing rocks at a building in nearby Qusra.
Netanyahu said the “criminal acts of violence committed in the villages of Kosra and Jalud by a handful of rioters who violate the law, cause enormous injustice to the law-abiding settler public, hinder the IDF in fulfilling its missions and harm Israel’s standing in the world.”
Spielman said in a post on X that “their actions violate the law; they endanger both Jews and Arabs, and they interfere with the Israel Defense Forces as they carry out vital security missions, and of course they harm Israel’s international legitimacy.”
Netanyahu, he said, requested that security forces “apprehend the perpetrators and to bring them to justice,” adding Israel “will not tolerate vigilantism of any kind by anyone.”
Israeli security described the regional violence on Saturday, saying they received reports that “rioters had arrived in the area and that violent clashes had occurred, including stone-hurling toward Palestinians and additional civilians.”
“Upon their arrival, the security forces identified dozens of rioters who had barricaded themselves inside a Palestinian home while Palestinian residents were inside,” the statement said.
“The security forces who arrived at the scene initially operated to remove the rioters from the home and separate the groups, in order to protect the residents inside the house. In addition, the security forces confiscated vehicles belonging to the Israeli rioters that were suspected of having been used to reach the area,” the statement said.
“IDF soldiers and Israel Border Police forces continue to operate in the areas of Qusra and Jalud to prevent further disturbances and restore order in the area,” it added.
There has been a spate of Israeli settler violence in the West Bank, and the village of Qusra has been besieged by Israeli settlers for weeks.
Between Jan. 1 and July 24, Israeli forces or settlers killed 76 Palestinians, according to the latest data available from the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. Three Israelis were killed over the same period, the data shows.
Netanyahu’s hard-line government has been accused of turning a blind eye to the settler attacks in the West Bank, which many governments around the world consider illegally occupied. In its statement after the attack, Israeli security forces said they “strongly condemn all forms of violence.”
Captured in the 1967 Middle East war, the West Bank is home to 3 million Palestinians and 500,000 Israeli settlers.
The recent escalation in violence has increased pressure on the Israeli military to stop these armed groups. The United Nations and media workers have also reported an uptick in attacks on foreign, Palestinian and Israeli journalists in the West Bank
JFKs father Joseph kennedy was a key figure in the irish catholic movement in the USA
the jews did not like this rival power block, but he was helped by
Joseph had powerful connections at the top of the stock exchange and was making big money
but said one day he stopped to have his shoes cleaned by a shoe shine boy, who told him a huge economic crash was coming, where the bankers would with hold all cash in preparation for a huge coming war, and Joseph should withdraw all his money, Joseph thought on this and by the 1929 financial crash he had re invested his money safely in real estate
When World War II came in September 1939, Kennedy was pessimistic about Britain’s ability to survive attacks from Germany. During the Battle of Britain in November 1940, Kennedy publicly suggested, “Democracy is finished in England. It may only last a short while.”
After a controversy regarding this statement, Kennedy resigned his position.
The Rothschild banker Bernard Baruch was accused of helping Joseph in exchange for not going against the US jews politically
Joseph bought out the RKO film studios and were behind the production of propaganda war films, he met and had a long affair with actress Gloria Swanson when she discovered that
an expensive puce of jewelry he bought her, was actually charged to her account
during prohibition when alcohol was banned Joseph with Franklin Roosevelt imported good quality scotch whisky at huge profit, again upsetting the jews.
Father Charles Coughlin, an Irish Canadian priest, became the most prominent Roman Catholic spokesman on political and financial issues in the 1930s, with a radio audience in the millions every week, would warn listeners that the jews were planning a war
and that Joseph had been dealing with them.
In 1938, Roosevelt appointed Kennedy as the United States ambassador to the Court of St James’s (United Kingdom). Kennedy believed Britain could not win a war with Germany
and supported Neville Chamberlian, claiming “Churchill was a mad man who would oversee the destruction of Britain”
Joseph was replaced for ” attempted peace making as was King Edward Viii and Charles Lindberg”
Just before his death Joseph told the Boston Herald this story about6 million jews being gassed in the war is laughable, it never happened
The jews had wanted revenge for some time and when Josephs son JFK insisted on sending nuclear inspectors into israel, the jews murdered him.
You’ve got to laugh. Who upon reading that would suspect the jews were responsible? Apparently it’s “home to 500,000 israhell settlers” and was done by “rioters”. What even the dum dums would never consider is that the entire thing is likely a lie. Even if anything actually happened, the participants were all nicely compensated. Who in all the world would believe that jew soldiers would rescue ragheads from jews? It’s as absurd as believing some raghead paragliders flew in, kidnapped some shop dummies and moved some bricks in a pavement. Or that 90,000 niggers drowned trying to walk round a breakwater. Or that diversity is your strength.
Blind mystic Baba Vanga’s terrifying prophecies of war for 2026 and a ‘warning’
Baba Vanga was a Bulgarian blind mystic who reportedly made prophecies about the future, including many that have come true in recent years. Here are her predictions for 2026
As we approach the dawn of a new year, things may not be as easy as we’d hope, if Baba Vanga’s predictions are anything to go by.
The late Bulgarian seer, who passed away in 1996, is said to have left behind a plethora of prophecies for future generations, extending up to the year 5079. One such prediction is currently being interpreted as a sign of the times. Vangelia Pandeva Gushterova, credited with accurately predicting the 2022 floods, Princess Diana’s death and the 9/11 attacks in NYC, is also believed to have foreseen the onset of the apocalypse and issued warnings about it prior to her death. In recent times, her name has been making rounds on the internet, particularly as global tensions escalate and extreme weather events become more frequent, sparking fresh debates over whether her visions were symbolic or literal. Supporters argue her prophecies tend to resurface whenever the world grapples with uncertainty, while critics contend that many of her forecasts are ambiguous enough to be applicable to virtually any significant event. According to interpretations by online forums and enthusiasts, one of Baba Vanga’s prophecies for 2026 suggests that we’ll finally receive direct contact from an unidentified civilisation arriving on Earth in a large craft during a major sporting event. She also hinted at the potential exploration of other planets, including Venus
However, her most unsettling prediction for this year suggests we’re heading towards a period of global conflict. According to her visions, this is the year humanity will recognise it has pushed technological progress “too far”, forcing us to face a critical turning point, reports the Express.
Experts also believe she hinted at a third world war, though notably, she made no reference to nuclear weapons or mass destruction. Among her more far-fetched forecasts, Baba Vanga predicted that humans would begin to achieve telepathic communication.
She also, somewhat optimistically, suggested that medical science will advance to the stage where human organs can be cultivated in laboratories, potentially pushing global life expectancy for some who can afford it up to approximately 120 years.
Over her lifetime she gave readings to thousands of people including top people in the Soviet Bloc and even Winston Churchill sent secretaries to her for advice, which ranks alongside Edgar Cayce Nostradamus and the London coin man
“… Netanyahu and his spokesman Doron Spielman condemned the violence…”
Ha ha ha, nuttyahoo and another murderous condemn violence??? The murder of Rachael Corrie, amongst many others, was never condemned by these or any other murderous kikes.
The worst of the worst of psychopathic subhuman scum polluting earth are the Ashkenazi “settlers”.
Willingness to steal Palestinian land and move onto it marks a person as evil. It’s no surprise when these plunderers attack newspeople who are exposing them. They’ve been attacking the people they are displacing or killing and replacing them for decades.
