It all happened within seconds. Aisha al-Rabi, 48,
was sitting in the car with her husband Yaqoub, 51, laughing and jesting
with their youngest daughter, 8-year-old Rama.
The parents of eight children were on the way home
to their village of Bidya, in the northwestern occupied West Bank, after
visiting one of their daughters in Hebron on October 12.
Yaqoub and Aisha were excitedly discussing plans
for the engagement of one of their daughters in two weeks. The next
moment, Aisha was unconscious, blood spilling from her head.
A group of Israeli settlers, the al-Rabi family
says, were hiding out on the right shoulder of the road around 9:30 pm.
They waited until the family slowed down ahead of a permanent Israeli
military checkpoint in the area. As the family approached the
checkpoint, the settlers began hurling large rocks at the car.
“My wife was in the passenger seat and she had her
head turned and was talking to me when the settlers attacked the car,”
Yaqoub told Mondoweiss on the patio of his family’s home. “So when the
huge rock broke through the windshield, it hit the right side of her
face, directly on her ear.”.....https://mondoweiss.net/2018/11/occupation-palestinian-settlers/
