Palestinian teen describes brutal Israeli settler attack

Tareq Zubeidi, 15, has been unable to resume normal life since surviving an attack by Israeli settlers.

More than two weeks after he was attacked, Tareq Zubeidi still spends most of his time in bed, too scared to leave home even if the wounds on his feet allowed him to walk normally. The 15-year-old is haunted by the memory of what he describes as a brutal attack by Israeli settlers, who he says beat him with clubs, tied him to a tree and burned the soles of his feet. “When I sit by myself I start thinking about all of them, and then I start sweating and my heart rate starts to increase,” Zubeidi told The Associated Press news agency.
