Settlers damage mosque near Nablus
Israeli settlers attacked the Nour al-Din Zanki Mosque in the town of Bani Zaid near Nablus early this morning. They attempted to set it on fire and wrote racist slogans and threats on its walls, including threats to kill Arabs. The settlers used flammable materials in their attempt to burn the mosque, but residents quickly extinguished the flames. The assault comes amid a widespread settlement escalation in the West Bank, where a human rights organization recorded over 1,450 attacks against Palestinians since the beginning of the year, resulting in approximately 1,040 injuries among Palestinians, amidst Israeli political support for such attacks. The Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf described these assaults as a serious escalation aimed at provoking Muslims, and called on the international community to protect the holy sites.
