Israeli settlers set fire to a mosque in Qasra village, located in south of the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank

Israeli settlers have reportedly set fire to a mosque in Qasra village, located in south of the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, hours after Israeli police officers destroyed three illegal structures in the settlement outpost of Migron.

According to Palestinian sources, a group of settlers arrived at the village mosque at approximately 3 A.M., threw burning tires toward it, and broke several of its windows. The event is the latest in a series of violence by Israeli settlers in the region.

The Palestinian Authority condemned the attack, stating that it is not the first of its kind to be carried out by settlers against mosques in the West Bank, and called on the Middle East Quartet to get involved.

According to the Palestinian news agency Ma’an, settlers also threw rocks at Palestinian vehicles near the settlement of Yitzhar, resulting in several instances of smashed windows.

The settler attack comes on the heels of response of the demolition of three buildings early Monday morning in the occupied West Bank settlement outpost Migron, 14 kilometers north of Al-Quds.

Around 200 settlers assembled and tried to make their way to the structures.
