WEST BANK, (The Palestine Foundation Pakistan)
A horde of extremist Jewish settlers set fire to homes and vehicles belonging to Palestinian citizens in the northern occupied West Bank, according to eyewitnesses on Tuesday.
Local sources reported that a group of settlers stormed the al-Laddan area, located between the towns of Beit Lid and Deir Sharaf west of Nablus, and set fire to crude homes, tents, swaths of cultivated land, and cars owned by Palestinian Bedouin residents.
The same settler group set fire to several vehicles in the industrial area near Beit Lid, including four trucks, and caused damage to a factory. They also threw stones at Palestinians, injuring two.
The flames consumed several structures and vehicles entirely before Palestinian firefighting crews arrived, while Israeli soldiers were present, protecting the settlers.
Since the outbreak of the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023, various areas across the West Bank have witnessed an unprecedented surge in settler attacks targeting Palestinians and their property.
