Settlers enter Joseph's Tomb guarded by army
Hundreds of Israeli settlers stormed the "Tomb of Joseph" in Nablus in northern the occupied West Bank in the early hours of Thursday, heavily protected by the Israeli army. The forces forced residents of the eastern area to evacuate nearby Palestinian homes, turning the area into military outposts with snipers deployed on rooftops. The settlers performed Jewish rituals amid attacks on local residents in the central vegetable market nearby. The "Tomb of Joseph" is a site of religious significance for Jews and is frequently entered under occupation protection. Palestinian narratives reject the Jewish claims regarding the site, which according to them is the tomb of the Prophet Joseph son of Jacob, while Palestinians consider it a Muslim shrine.
