Israeli police have arrested five suspects over an attack on a woman who was putting up posters in Bet Shemesh.

The incident, which police said involved strictly Orthodox men, saw Natalie Mashiach pelted with stones. The 27-year-old's car's tyres were slashed and she was surrounded by a group of men.

She was putting up an advert for Israel's national lottery at the time.

One of the stones thrown left her with mild injuries.
