Israeli settlers attack Palestinian homes in Nablus

Occupied Palestine (QNN) – Extremist Israeli settlers attacked on Tuesday several Palestinian homes in Burqa town, northwest of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

Palestinian official, Ghassan Daghlass, said that a group of Israeli settlers infiltrated from the settlement of Homish and attacked the homes of Palestinian citizens in al-Manshara area north of Burqa under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces.

Daghlass added that the Palestinian citizens tried to stop the settlers’ attempts, which led to erupting confrontations in the area, during which the Israeli forces fired tear gas canisters towards the Palestinians, causing several of them to suffer suffocation.

Israeli settlers attack Palestinians on a daily basis across the occupied territories under the so-called “Price Tag” banner. Such attacks always go unpunished by the Israeli occupation authorities.

These attacks often include assaults on Palestinians, slashing tyres, painting anti-Arab slogans, in addition to the cutting down of trees belonging to Palestinian farmers.
