Nablus-Area Village Targeted as Vehicle Burned by Israeli Settlers in West Bank Attack
The occupiers attacked the village at dawn and set fire to a vehicle belonging to a Palestinian, completely burning it, Al-Bidar Human Rights Organization said in a statement.
The group said the occupiers also tried to attack several homes and vehicles in the village before residents confronted them and forced them to withdraw.
Targeting civilian property and burning vehicles is a direct attack on Palestinians and their property, threatens security and stability in the area, and increases tensions in the West Bank, Al-Bidar said.
The West Bank has seen an escalation in occupier attacks on Palestinian villages, including burning property and assaulting residents, especially in areas near settlements and settlement outposts.
About 750,000 illegal Israeli settlers live in 141 settlements and 224 settlement outposts in the West Bank, including 250,000 in 15 settlements in occupied East Jerusalem al-Quds. They carry out daily attacks against Palestinians aimed at forcibly displacing them.
The attacks also include vandalizing and demolishing facilities and homes, burning and bulldozing farmland, and preventing farmers from reaching their land.
