The attack occurred when four members of the news team were interviewing Aida Ahmed Abdullah and her family in the Palestinian town of Jalud, near Nablus.

Abdullah told the outlet that they had been driven out of their home by settlers, and the team was walking down a hill toward the house.

A car with Israeli license plates reversed up the hill toward them. At least four men with their faces covered leapt from the vehicle, hitting them with sticks and throwing rocks.

“They jumped out, beat us, then jumped back in the car,” said NBC News correspondent Matt Bradley. Bradley was hit twice in the arm and treated at a nearby clinic.

IDK, for once this might actually not have been the IDF - I don't think I've ever heard of the israelis having the self control to attack journalists with just sticks and rocks.
