A 17-year-old Arab resident of eastern J'lem has been taken into custody after assaulting bus inspectors in the city.
The teen was approached by inspectors who asked him to put on his coronavirus mask. He proceeded to contact his friends and when the inspectors got off at a stop in the French Hill, the officials were attacked, receiving light injuries.
The suspect was quickly identified by police and arrested. A search is underway for the remaining suspects in the attack.
