▶ Israeli settlers set fire to large areas of open land south of Nablus – YouTube
Israeli settlers have conducted yet another attack against Palestinian property in the occupied West Bank. A Palestinian official says the settlers have set fire to hundreds of acres of open land around the village of Burin, south of the city of Nablus. There has been no report of casualties. The latest settler violence comes as anger boils among Palestinians over the death of two members of a family in an arson attack last Friday. The family’s 18-month-old toddler burnt to death after Israeli settlers firebombed their house in Duma village near Nablus. His father, Sa’ad Dawabsheh succumbed to his burns on Saturday. The mother and their 4-year-old son remain in critical condition. Israel has boosted military deployment in the West Bank.
