Palestinian women attacked in Jerusalem
Three Jewish citizens attacked a 75-year-old Palestinian woman as she left a hospital in West Jerusalem. Fatiyah Mohamed was waiting for a car when the three men assaulted her.
They tried to \"rip off her veil\" as they racially insulted her. Fatiyah\'s clothes were also torn in the process.
An Arab taxi driver, who saw the attack, stopped to help the victim, and took her home. Fatiyah, who had to be taken to a clinic to treat her wounds, states that she has filed an official complaint.
This is not the first time such an attack has taken place. A 23-year-old Palestinian woman was also attacked in Jerusalem on Sunday, suffering a few injuries.
