Cars torched, graffiti sprayed in West Bank Palestinian town in reported settler attack

Cars were torched in the West Bank Palestinian town of Atara overnight in an apparent attack by masked Israeli settlers, who allegedly also sprayed graffiti there.

The graffiti in the central West Bank village reads, “Regards to Zini from Har Hamor,” in a reference to Shin Bet chief David Zini, the Haaretz outlet reported. Har Hamor is an ultraconservative yeshiva where Zini studied.

Another instance of graffiti reads “Happy Ramadan holiday,” referring to the Muslim holy month that begins in February. A Star of David was tagged next to the phrase.
