      11 Jewish Residents Injured Amid Clashes in Esh Kodesh


      About 250 Palestinian-Arabs rioted Saturday afternoon near Esh Kodesh in Binyamin. 

      Those present reported that the rioters broke the fences surrounding the vineyards belonging to the Israeli residents of the community.

      Following the disturbances and riots, about 30 residents from the surrounding region attempted to force the rioters to leave the area by throwing stones.

      After a short time, local security forces alerted the regional emergency squad and those on duty fired into the air until IDF forces arrived at the scene and suppressed the riot. 

      The heads of Esh Kodesh reported that 11 Jewish residents were injured during the clashes.
