Some 300 Jews visited the graves of the prophets Natan and Gad, located in the village of Halhul, near Hebron, on Saturday night.

Both Natan and Gad were prophets to King David and mentioned in the Book of Samuel.

During the visit, Arabs rioted and threw Molotov cocktails and stones at the IDF forces protecting the visitors. The IDF responded with riot-dispersal weapons.
