"Our lives were in danger, as [the Palestinians] threw rocks and boulders at us", he said.
During the hike, which was celebrating the barmitzvah of one of the children, the group walked near the Palestinian village of Qusra, located near Nablus, according to reports.

Israeli settlers and Palestinians clash in the northern West Bank on November 30, 2017. The army said security forces were using riot-dispersal means to try to end the clashes and that one soldier was lightly hurt by a Molotov cocktail thrown by a Palestinian. Two Jewish fathers escorting the hikers were injured.
Palestinians identified the man as 47-year-old Mahmoud Zaal Odeh, killed in the occupied Palestinian village of Qusra, south of the city of Nablus. "IDF forces arrived at the site and rescued all the hikers".
"The investigation is continuing and police units are searching for the suspect who fled the scene", said a police spokesman.
Palestinian Authority official Ghassan Daghlas said Odeh was working on his land when he was confronted by some 20 settlers who were hiking through the village. Israel says a lot of them were attackers and that others died in clashes with Israeli forces.
