Nature reserve rangers from the Ein Gedi resort were attacked by approximately 100 yeshiva students from Bnei Brak, Sunday.

The boys were lighting bonfires, against nature reserve regulations.

When the rangers asked the yeshiva students to turn out the bonfires, the young men attacked them with stones.

No casualties were reported but the rangers' car was damaged.

Israel's Nature Reserve Authority said it would file a complaint with the police.
